from a depth

i am coming from the mollusk and i taste the water
the ocean floor a desolate realm
i lie with emptiness the heart
a hunger within to explore

i must rise to the end
to breathe blue sky
to taste fresh breeze
and kiss my skin softly

i must rise above
to see a prism reflect my water soaked eye
and hear gulls sing
into where water once stood

i must rise above
to invite
to share
to find my love

and may she exticate me from the perilous depth

and may we be lost in another until this world ends
and may we find another when terrestrial worlds begin
more?
