Ode to Love

What you say happens, what I say happens Must one of us stay silent forever? What I think happens, what you think happens Can this end in anything but "never?" How can one walk away from one so close? I don't remember, don't think I want to Even in the net I wonder of gross Though colors respond to sharpen moon's view Desired and devoured spectrums grow Until pinpoint accuracy is found Radio still signals strangers below Up so high, don't think I've forgotten ground Through infinitely small angles we sift Lover, strangers, friends, and family the gift 

Red turning to green More subtle hints discarded As my eyes narrow You stitched the edges Saw blue like never before Before I walked in Now our sight aligns Like the Christmas lights revealed As the son foretold So you pave potholes Preparing to knock down cones Knowing I won't slow Dark grey rooms alight As the puzzle wraps around The answer is found Still wrong, but so right Without intended to be Just intending (pursuing) you In this way unchanged Since floor model stealing days And tossed pebble nights But so much different I hope you consider me A wine worth the wait 

Just passing right through Not for any fear of flames But for love of one Red narrows to gold So in momentary grace I pray gratefully Room after room pierced Until highest hopes acheived Then bid fine farewell Not lost in darkness For Phoenix sight sees the hues And recalls the steps This feels like instinct Like salmon swimming upstream Or butterfly flight All the while we Laugh with joy sequestered and Perfect the blueprints You knew I'd return Your song laced with when and how Have you yet grasped why? I must remember Clear things here might be shrouded I love you, my dear
