(.....) Other

She looks like an angel, in black

My heart swells.

Heaven and hell.

Know her name,

the one chiseled in my heart.

Putting me together

&

Pulling me apart

 

When she laughs,

I have to laugh along.

Like singing the verses,

To all my favorite songs.

So far away

Yet in my ears,

My water ripples, insides stir

Curious to know

What songs I bring to her

 

I will bring her mice,

To porch, their heads off torn.

I will lay on her lap,

To be stroked, and keep her warm.

Purr at her touch,

Hiss at the others,

I don't care how far,

She is my (.....) Other

 

No words or thoughts to her, mylove

Are lightly thrown or in vain.

Rise with me,

Recline with me,

Find yourself in me,

As I dine on thee.

Together,

Kicking puddles in the rain.

 

I Figure eight,

around her feet.

My tail raised high,

There's no deceit,

In my affections

With which I smother

I give all parts

She is my (.....) Other

And I love her.

 

So raise your sail

and sail into the wind.

I stand beside,

As we both ride.

To unknown places,

With her I wind,

And am refined

She must know,

beautiful girl,

My love-- I can not rescind

 

I will always float atop,

Over her form I hover.

And I will always remain,

I am her (.....) Other
