Space Between Us

precious time holding now
precious fingers holding on for life
whisper to me, while I hold you
heartbeat pounding pulsing life
space between us blue as oceans
gold as sunshine, red as my blood
you smell like earth, dirt under my nails
love like hunger eating through me
buttoned up on my chest
lie for hours sensing all you are
space between us blue as oceans
gold as sunshine, red as my blood
love like hunger eating through me, eating through me
love like hunger eating through me
calmest power peaceful mother
nurturing you have arrived
cause it’s no longer life alone
I would fight and break my every bone just to see you breathe
space between us blue as oceans
gold as sunshine, red as my blood
