Shipwreck

When I embrace you, 
I squeeze into you,

I melt into you,

A sweet shipwreck into you—
No view of the shore in sight....

I dive into the deep blue, 

With only dim head light,
and clumsy swim gears,
I hunt for the wrecked treasure of you--

When I shipwreck into you, 
I sink into you,
we start to descend

Into the ocean’s rarely seen landscape of me,
The vast unknown constantly expanding,

A voyage to the original myth,

Starts from where the sky ends,

And the ocean begins--

Led by the pulsation of my heart beat, 
That knows of the route,
Through the nauseating,

And comforting vast darkness
Of this moment’s resistance and fears,
And this moment of truth,

and this moment of confusion...

I swim into you, navigating inside---
Pulled by the vacuum suction of passion
Weeding through the wild ocean reeds,
Of your past memories & emotions,
the ghosts locked in time,
By your life time’s History,
Shadows after shadows, overlapping

The ghosts speak the fake language of the Now,
With past happenings, from their skinny skulls
And their air-bubbled fat lips

When I hug into you, 
The Sirens sing on the rocks,
Her familiar tunes that sound like home,
And Herstory beckoning--
An enticing answer to life, deep
From the timeless pitch black ocean floor
Where the bones of the mermaids
Were left to rot,
And their smiles sea flowers
Glow in the dark….
