your twisted locks tangle down your front
your stature — stately, perfect within its state
your curved arms, hefting the world’s weight without alms, fall to the sides
your clothes worn, tweed draping your nimble stance
blokes on stoles, visible to preen
your auburn shaft, a darker crass
mending your form, your craft
your ever present smile
hazy eyes that sting you in the after light
your nude toned lips — a detail i don’t skip
i’d take you in a heartbeat
out of the bodies, you’re somebody i can’t forget
you’re able bodied to be deemed worthy by me
your life breathes in mine
i navigate it with time
say you don’t wander but walk to me
i want each inch of our skin to be intertwined
in the best possible room i can find
for you to become mine
all this time, couldn’t anything else be this sublime
could anyone else suffice
you top your throne alone
your slow rows, to and fro, controlled
mere peers bid their dues to your zone
mindless chattery folk, you deplore
you’re one of a kind
a locked door that catches your spy
our longing played in different sonnets
pain from the meeting across panes
you’re a force of your own
you catapult cool above buzzing drones
you know what you know — your art, you bestow
among groves, a nymph who grows in the forest
i’m exploring, lost, where i strive to grow
i’d like to say you’re my dearest
my heart forewarned came unrest
your intellect rests in your resting expressions
while i snap you out of your wits when i show up, you play up
aim to display it
convey to me your interest
i hope to know you in depth
but your body isn’t far from mine
your energy transmits beyond benign
we share the same fringed hair, open smile, jungle eyes —
same shades of brown on your mouths
same pining towards the other side
brilliant grains permeating common blood
same garments that breed our fluidity
aureate music mixed blue encapsulating what lines us
same going to what drives us
same solitary strength dominating trust
same mental simulation clocking, tick our robust crust
we figure the same figures
i dream how i fit in the palm of your hand
the imagination of it, no utopia land
our soft content, together glad
your focus on me, with you, i stand
you evoked my emotions kept at stealth
your wellness is my wealth
you flourished my tidal belts
you’re my turning point to what can be felt
your gaze heady as i emerge from that room
i want to diverge my path so i can dwell with you
i wait with precise restraint, till we meet again
