Lying on the beach
sand between our toes
you roll back to me
The gulls soar
their wings spread full
caressed by the burning sun
we are them
we are the laughing gulls
and the blood orange sky
as it melts and steams into the waves
and we are the restless sea
where the tide swells
let’s live in the bright blue oceans
of each other’s eyes
bending our glistening backs over the slippery rocks
eagerly and confidently
night and day will cease to exist
there is only your breath
and eyelashes thick
with salty kisses
your voice
urging my lungs to go on
filling the beat
of my lover's heart
