to alex.........here's to yearning



met on the shore
on a rainy dawn in late november
speak not a word was
what you wrote to me.
shoes sucked in sand
and a heavy coat around his shoulders
but in a hand was what you gave to me.
you stood so strong
and the waves beyond
were rolling oh
pulling me close like a movie on the sea.

i wanna ride on a road
that turns a thousand corners,
two beams of light,
one for you and me.
house in the hills
and inside the sound of nervous laughter
all bed awide, unmade by you and me.
your body is strong
that i touch until it turns to water,
was real to me.

i long to touch your
tender skin of alabaster,
shoulders as white
as the peaks beyond the sea.
arms in your arms
as soon the room is spinning faster,
eyes in your eyes
are theonly thing i see.
love you so much
so the only thing that you remember
is what it's like
to be in love with me.
