SOS

"SOS"

 

I love Ships

I'm just not into Ships

You and I in a Ship

Is it Titanic or Black Pearl?

I wish I knew

But the currents are strong

I want you but too afraid to need you

Want to be with you but can't let myself go

I'm two sides of a coin

Dude, I'm like a dude.

Keeping things close to the chest,

That is my default.

A heart as big

Walls twice as big

The bigger the heart

The bigger the walls

My walls,

Mount Everest high.

My safe haven,

Then you came along.

My precious walls,

Suddenly too confining.

Don't know how to bring them down

Too afraid to even try

First I needed a look at you

Then I needed to touch you

The need to hold you so overwhelming

Oh! The need to taste you, Painfully strong.

Therein lies my want for you,

I want to meet you halfway.

I want to feel you close,

Each passing moment.

My sunny days, filled with thoughts of you.

And my moonless nights,

With dreams of you.

Too many to count

My Lionheart,

A puppy-heart in your presence

Wound tight in your presence

Doing ninety in a sixty-five

Don't have to see you

knows when you are near

Feels your presence

Goes into overdrive and it won’t stop!

This connection with you,

Unnervingly strong!

A dangerous feeling,

A menace to my walls.

Plagued with questions,

Will I lose myself in you?

Or grow into more?

Will I be left standing alone?

Dearest, tell me I'm not in this ship alone

With us its hill and Valleys

Never placid ocean

High tides!

Caught in the storm

Cut in the storm

Sliced beyond surface

A nasty cut

Far from healing

Bleeding on each other

Swimming in blood & tears,

In cold deep waters

Cold deep pain pulling us down

Do we sink or float?

How do we float?

Dearest, is that doom approaching? Titanic?
