We painted galaxies
on the inside of where
our souls reside.
The walls dripped
with stars
and fell onto our hands.
We touched each other’s skin
until we both became cosmic
in the off-light through the window.
We made love and created flowers
from the union.
They grew around our bodies
while we huddled together
as if trying to lose
where you end
and I begin.
Our legs tangled
and our fingers intertwined.
Your lips pressed to mine.
that first stanza looks a lot like something i've written myself. great minds thing a like i presume (and we are two great minds!)
ReplyDeleteit's a beautiful, lovely lovely poem. <3
Thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteIt actually didn't start off as a poem, funnily enough. It started out like something more like I usually write, but Nathan keeps telling me that my writing reminds him of poetry so I thought I would break it up into lines and see how it sounded. He liked it better this way and I was feeling a tad lazy, so I kept it. ^_^
