The Clouds Above the Giving Tree

Would you please
grant the honor and
dance with me?
as we breathe
as we breathe we
fill our lungs
with the fire from our own tongues
taken from the giving tree
dance with me dance with me
Spoil yourself with all that feels right.
Leave behind day to day for a night.
Abandon reason and deny God
the satisfaction of being correct for once.
two hearts
beating
two souls
singing
two mouths
Breathing in
Breath out
the clouds surround us
Lie down
we meet again
Stars out
we lay inside my
Bedroom
beneath our sky
Okay
I need to take a breather.
The air is so thin
atop this mountain of sin.
I see the clouds beneath us.
It’s a long way down.
We won’t risk the fall
if we just climb higher.
breathe in…
breathe in.
