i thought so much...

I thought 

If you and I were going to fall, 

we would fall like we were on a trampoline

Each time we would laugh and jump high on it …with bellies hurting

Twinkles spreading

Charmed in each other’s hold

I thought we were that kind of magic

Where even if I drew a home like a three year old, 

with a chimney on top and one line where all animals, gardens and family stands –

you would stick it with your heart without making fun of me

I thought we were that magic

Where I could be a clown, a fool or a monster – 

and you would only push me ahead to be more of all of it

 …you even did …

I thought we were both ...magic

I know magic is unreal and temporary, 

I know it cannot be held for long

But I also thought we were faith,

Where I did and would… 

wake up in your arms every morning ...

the way the moon and the sun sleep, 

and everyone thinks they are far away, 

while they are always in a sweet embrace

They have been used so much by poets and writers,

 abused and misused too, 

people, angels, God, all have stories around them – 

yet they never care, they only look out for one another

I thought we were that faith –

 I felt like the queen bee ready to make honey from the flowers of our kisses,

And only you can tell…what kind of honey it could and would be…

I thought so much ….
