Nefelibata

The air is your presence

You’re cloaking me

Like a warm comfort

So close yet so far

You fill my lungs

Evaporate my tears

Turn them into dew

Let them fall to form oceans

Or watch them float up

In the Misty glow of the empty sun

The clouds are heavy with this

Gaping hole that leaves a scar

You’re so close yet so far

When building a castle,

Most people think

a castle should be strong, emotionless,

the walls should be safe

the foundations secure.

But, my Castle is also kind,

it has the most amazing laugh,

while being secure, my Castle is beautiful.

My Castle has gorgeous hair,

Mesmerising eyes that glow in the sun,

Soft lips that take my breath away

Comfy arms that hold me close.

Yes, while my Castle protects me,

my Castle also loves me.

I wish I could kiss you a thousand times

Secrets stored in stone

People say water holds memory

But they forget

We have mountains of time,

But never enough.

We cannot fast forward,

And we can never go backwards.

We cannot press snooze when our time runs out,

And we can never pause

even when we want time to

stand

You used to be cold as ice,

They stole me away from your arms, and now you burn my hand.

You’re melting under my fingertips,

Cooking against my body,

Blazing at the sight of my eyes.

What’s happening to you?

Your silver plated armour is falling away.

To reveal your skin, soft to touch

With satin lips,

Silky breath,

Felt hands,
