Just how deep exactly?

I want OH SO MUCH MORE!

Run away with me?

Dance

Slip

Dive

Into a lucid dream.

Trip

Tumble

Slide

Deep into your eyes.

Tangled

Torn

Tattered

Within these vines,

We’ll synchronize

So mesmerized.

Another place,

Outside of time.

So precious,

So fine.

YES!

What a beautiful mind!

Sacred love take my hand

Across this vast land.

Swim!

The ocean brilliant blue

Play!

The sand awaits

Climb!

Higher!

For I am high with you.

At the top of a new world,

I shall rest with you.

Sing!

For Our song shall be carried in the wind.

Golden Glory!

Plummet down rich green moss,

Summit!

This snow capped mountain peak.

Laugh!

Slip Further!

Tip-Topple

Over and under;

Under and over.

Two entangled souls

Slide!

Deeper Still!

Down

This rainbow

In search of a pot of golden dreams.

Back up we go!

Through flurries of snow

Before we

Descend

Once again,

Down,

Down,

Deeper.

Dream now;

Soft sleeper.

We journey home.

Awaken!

To this beautiful life,

Intwined.

Open..

Open those deep mahogany eyes.

Gaze!

Into the baby blue of mine.
