Even From the Sea
Not wicked,
never say wicked, do not say so
for how could any yearn so sweet, so lovely and loving, admiring, kind, how could any love be so? not wicked, love, say not so, not wrong, not bad, not evil, not a sin, not unforgivable
just unfortunate
winner takes it all, and the other is left on a greek hill in the ocean high up with scarf whipping
the wind stinging
but she's beautiful, isn't she? Up there swaying to the sound of gales, singing to the elements, alone, aging into her face
a life out of dark into wind and light and sun and bright
is this the love you are destined to ask of me, the lost muse on the high hill
singing a sad song of aloneness, not as torn despair, as being cut half in a twoship
you don't and didn't advance pursuits, would not either not ever unless told to,
unless she called out to you, from the dirt, and you smelled the fresh air after all those years caged up
if there is always more to know of musing then i must tell you, that from the first moment
when you whispered your name so sweetly, it was an avalanche for me, seen, heard, smelled, felt
that very moment, drawn, compelled to swing around a corner smiling in blinding desert sunshine
never ever been that warm and right in the inner lining of my bones before
in one moments happenstance
when for me it takes years and years and years
it does not dissapate even from the sea
