us

Deep rifts of turquoise ocean scattered between us seem of little concern
when tasting you, the taste of love, is what my reward can be.
A boat with pristine white sails will carry me to you,
over those rifts,
past all shooting stars,
all things earthly and celestial,
and sentiments I may regret.
Stripped bare until the absence of color is an abstract flood of rainbow roses and sky.
When the canvas I finally paint is an image of us,
not me and you,
or you and I.
