Existent

Love between women; disregarded

It set you going, didn't it?
That brief stare from halfway across the classroom,
The curvature of her bitten, bottom lip

As she smiled, an earnest grin
your heart went utterly still,
For the first time in all your life,
A constant hum, now so silent
It was shrill

Those hands, where have they been
Your mind began to alternate
To a world where she begins
How, how do those palms sin?
For only blessings could come from
Such an eloquent shade of pink

It tears through you,
The vessel of belief,
Belief in all things, and it was the shipwreck
On your skin

Only oceans could withstand
The depth that you were in,
Engulfed in the whereabouts of a dream
So far as the horizon
That never seems to bay
The thought of land is desperate
When your boat's been led astray

But swimming was an instinct
Drowning not a clause
In this relationship that they are trying
To deteriorate
On the basis of (moral) fraud,
Those who preach forgiveness,
who say love will solve us all,
Would grasp at the strings of our union
And pull until we fall

Beyond the act of trying
To resurface from their fears
What little do they know about
The deception of the seas
For a wave pulls out so slightly
And above all logical sense at all,
Comes crashing through the boundaries
That boarded up a wall.
