WAVE(S)

and is your love for me both infinite and expanding?

to be limitless - must it grow limitlessly?

the filmstrips that flash through my mind.

cause when it's you and me the stretching never stops.

like drums pounding in a blue lit room

like enough space to run forever

like a burning bush

like flying over the glowing hearts of cities

like a story that someone told

about thrashing underwater to lose all gravity

and you said you've brought me into a spacious place

and you said you've delighted in me

and your voice is like rushing waters

and your throne sits on a sea of fire glass

the ocean is where I've always found you

first handshake

we wave

crash, foam, spread, settle, murmur

my feet in the sand

I never learned to surf, yeah even though (he) tried to teach me

an ocean full of (something) (deep and dark and you)

like a shark thrashing around

I never learned but I heard

that there's one way to get through the tallest ones

to not be crushed in the crashing

there's no over, there's no waiting

there's only under, love.

go low

so as to not be consumed

swal(low)ed in the sea

your waves and breakers keep on crashing.

an innocent barista says

"it's like we've known each other our whole lives."

my heart puts its hand on her shoulder.

he'll get married before he's thirty

and I wonder about the way lenses work

those aren't mountains, they're waves.
