How does one covet the ocean,
When so many depend on it?
How should one steal away the moon,
When it gives light to the darkest of bits?
What is a tulip to a field of gold,
A fir to a forest of oaks;
When will thine hand reach mine,
So we can caress the starlit shores?
an ache, a gentle tremor
of ghost sinew long
forgotten; a shiver-- you
are the whisper of leaves
and pencil lining of the sky, you
are the secret written in the binding
of the forbidden, the skip
in my breath
O forbidden feeling, whence you came
I know not when you intruded
But surely, it could not be in vain
to love another so wholeheartedly.
And in return, he gathered my love:
Nay, I went willingly -
The unknowing followed by the noticed.
Until the words could not be withheld
And, to be sated, they poured forth
Entrenching only those that felt them --
I was the tide.
if you were the ocean, I
was the tide and I came to you
hungry and wanting and
I stand now, before you, now,
Bold faced and dripping wet.

A collaboration I am honored to say I did with intricately-ordinary. She has some of the most beautiful and heartfelt writings I have ever read in my life.
Thank you so much for doing this with me, I hope we may work together again!
