Tidal

It’s the first time, we’d been to a shore

The first time, seen petrels soar,

Seas of mirror made wings sand thick

And us sand light.

I could hear the scream rising in your heart

And rolls of drum rushing from afar,

That music of time rained tears but

Got me not to cry.

The stones stood alone

Telling tales of the temple.

God of the sun played the flute

You dancing in storks’ moves.

Wind rose and sewed

The waves in green and blue.

Hot hearts in freezing cold

Feeling naked like toes.

Make a dive, swim deep

Before the sea burnt by the yellow moon.

Breathe free if we kiss

In this love for so long we’ve never showed.

Time frozen back when it struck,

I see the light on which you rode,

You are still the one who makes my sea brewed.

It’s the first time, we’d been to a shore

The first time, seen petrels soar,

Seas of mirror made wings sand thick

And us sand light.

I could hear the scream rising in your heart

And rolls of drum rushing from afar,

That music of time rained tears but

Got me not to cry.

Night fell before it oozed

Mysteries of old books,

where lovers are never doomed,

If they confide to the oud.

Wind rose and sewed

Your hair in shade and glow.

I found one thing about truth

Beauty’s born in your voodoo.

Make a dive, fall free

Before life gets too heavy to control

Hold tight if we sink

In my arms the abyss’s about to be the home

Time flying ahead when it ends,

We’ll cage the light in which we bloom,

You are always the one who makes my waves move.
