Seabird (Poem)

Your oceanic eyes interlaced with wonder and ambition.
I stand there by the seabirds song.
Your heartbeat, a melodious tune
Played on repeat.
An old harpsichord
Entrapped by the perils of disillusion.
The standby of my mouth
Fractured words, thoughtless syllables.
Every breath interlaced with you
I want to stop
I want to let it go
But the more I separate you, I separate my soul.
I wait in anticipated glory for the day where my mouth is alive
Where the words drip off my lips without a second glance
You won't sit in silence, no, you would engage.
.
Together we would fly like larks.
The vibrations of our souls echo courageously through the trees
And here I wait for the seabirds plea.
