i’d love to see you smile
i’d love to watch you walk
lazily by the water
the sun reflecting off the diamond ripples onto your face
i want to sit under that tree with you
and have a picnic
i want to peel a pomengranite, watch the tangy juice dye my skin
as i throw the seeds into your mouth
i want to see you bite into the seeds
i want to be those seeds
my tangy blood
rolling over your tongue
i’d love to sit with you between my legs
as i try to braid your hair
we know i don’t know how
but we sit and gaze anyway
i want the summer’s breeze to blow
warm through our fingers
as we swing our hands to the rhythm
of our bare feet in the gravel
down by the water
i want to lay down
and watch the sunset over us
our hearts chime with the quiet dusk
as it settles around our bodies
i want and i’d love to
