i wait not for tomorow

men will die
over you
and i will live
to die
another day

            
too soon my lips
must beg your beauty
to behold
how eloquently
i tremble
in its wake

for i thirst not
for your lips alone
nor for the devilish
mischief
in your
angel eyes
      
nor to be shadowed
by your elegance
when self-assured
you cross my path
wafting my senses
with your sweet perfume      
      
for me
it is the little things
that count

that certain smile
the way your eyes
follow me
weighing my life

as if i could be
eventual merchandise
for your altar of
endless possibilities

the way you
hold your head
defiant
and tell me straight up
to get lost

but i am
lost
already
lost
out of myself
lost
in the
be-wilderness
of you


how much more lost
can i become
until you give me
all of yourself

mountain
to greener mountains
ocean
to deeper depths
sky
to higher galaxies

earth
to blissful heaven
and you
to me
to us

i wait not
for tomorrow
i tremble now
because i hear you say
get lost      

for men will die
over you
but i will live
to love
another day
            
            divergent
bits and pieces
  to peaceful      confluence
     everlasting
             circle of life      

and i am lost
in your sweet love
forever…
