Tears & Kisses - Nikki's Passion

(written with JohnFeddeler)

when we weep,
the tears flow gently down our cheeks.
I will collect those tears in a perfume bottle,
the one that is heart-shaped and strong.

into the bottle, we will blow kisses
that will swim there like immortal mermaids.
I'll seal it with iron ribbons inscribed
with the love we carry in our hearts.

I will take the sealed bottle to the place
where the land meets the ocean's hands.
across the sandy bottom I'll walk,
into the water, until I am waist-deep.

that bottle, filled with tears and kisses and love,
will ride upon the waves, out to the great sea,
and it will float in the ocean's embrace
for all eternity...

when I return home, will you hold me?

embraced in sapphire blue
carried upon my soft breasts
with each ebb and flow
caressed by the throws of love

the moon shines within the tears
cresting with soft gentle streaks of gray
the tenderness of your kisses
felt upon the sweet-tempered breeze

a feeling of peace and love abundant
as i hold you within my azure arms
fairy wisp fingertips trace the contours
of your smooth as glass skin

tracing circling waves upon your arms
as fragrant bubbles perfume your senses
my breath softly stirs into a foggy mist
caressing your loving face

placing butterfly kisses upon your warm lips...
