~Motions~

the hidden moon

peeking out from

the iris
blue green pearls

and moving clouds

I glanced

throught velvet

tree branches

I felt the storm coming

and felt excited

upside down,

it’s a trembling

and drunken sky

stars come out

in a cold sky

I’m finally free

you just roll

over me

again

and you pull me

back in

at the edge

what have we become?

it seems like

were going the motions

it seems like

you could care less

when I lean in

you pull away

am I enough?

we don’t have much

to say anymore

I want to feel

the fire

in our heart again

it’s hard to keep

that spark

I just want to feel

the moment again

all I want

is to be back

in your arms

laying back

looking up

at the stars

tangled and lazy

creaking

cricket

blackberry thickets

only the trees

will know

what we do
