Your Pool of Love
seemed shallow at first
mellow and wet
enough to conquer my thirst
as the doves sang
while the sun set, and sent
Your smile
sucking in my fears
before I slid in
waved, with amorous gears
and found my pulse rising
as I wafted around you
and lungs moaning
whenever those kisses of you
would submerse us, towards the buttocks
of the pool
Yet as your kisses draw me deeper
and leave my lungs heavier
and in need of more, tongue ties
in order to breathe, down below….
I’ve realized
that I may never be able
to stop loving you
nor swim out of these delicious waters
pooled, by my love for you
So even though
it’s now too late
to float back to the surface
where it all began
Let me slow down, hold you still
look into your eyes,
And deprive you of that
Last kiss
Just so my lips and lungs
can take in
as much of your love
and drown enough
to float back to surface
Even if that means
Losing you
just to reach the surface again
and touch the sun once more
even with, my eyes forever closed
