Would you?
Speak words that run far and hold memories like the thick vines,
To knot every corner of my heart.
Reach for my hands like a little child, to find the helpless trust in my eyes.
Give yourself to read through the pages of my book,
Understand every complex word,
every hidden phrase,
in every complicated sentence,
You might see the world through my eyes and learn a new language.
Burrow yourself to the ground like a mountain when the storms come,
and travel like the wind to find me,
Fill every distance between our skins to find the thumb of my heartbeat,
Take me into a sunlight binding storms,
With binding hands to comfort me in the moments I can't see you there,
Show me the brighter colors within petals and the soft twinkles in stars,
learn to hear a song in the whistle of birds, and sing endless lullabies with your eyes closed,
Find the path to my smiles to hear the echoes of my laughter,
explore every inch of my skin, to feel what's almost too delicate.
Say what I'm thinking when you look in my eyes, to silence the voice that called me misunderstood all my life.
stay with me until every layer of our skin settles to dust, to be the last ship I ever set sail on
Would you?
