Seal my honey drenched lips, with your petal soft kiss. Place your heaven made palm on my feather dulcet skin. Let them words flow from your poetic mouth, and let them become tattoos on my sacred back. Just like the sea rumbles for the the passionate moon, and so do, i for you.

the grip is powerful,
and the darkness is obscure to most.
I thrive in the sun,
I feel the gentle rhythms.

I will heal, after a semi quiet yawp, i will heal.
