Eyes Caught By Stars (Version 2)

Curly starbursts fanning out in waves,

Sunshine melons.

Hands of soft buttery oils,

healing the cracks of sandpaper skeleton sheath rinds.

Honeydew summer waterfalls,

scented downpours caress my eyelids,

nudging them gently closed. 

Laughter, Dares, Explosions, Quivering, Aching, Sighs.

Faceless lover,

blindfolded fool you make of me.

Holding the starburst in my teeth,

coconuts washing my knotted hair clean with tropical entanglements, 

waterfalls lashing rushing up my nose,

all at once,

If I am dreaming,

dear one promise you won't wake me up.
