Picking Me Up
You worship my body like it is perfection
And made for you. Soft kisses rain down
My body like water drops. Show affection
To parts of my mind I want to drown
In because those are my thoughts that
Get all tangled up. You turn my frown
Right side up. There is no reason to be flat
And deflated when things are going so right
In life. You pick me up before I can go splat
Against the concrete. Darling, hold me tight
Before I lose my feelings and emotions.
Leave your mark so I do not go into flight
Mode and leave. Tidal waves of oceans
Keep crashing into us and darling, I can
No longer form or take the notions
Of having this be over. Let go of the plan
From long ago. We are not where we began.
