Tripped
I'm so happy I don't have to look anymore
I didn't watch where I was going
When I fell, I lost sight of the world
Consumed by reveries of August
I looked up to watch the clouds
In reflections of atoms on baby blue canvas...
All I could see was you
Deep within my daydreams, there was an ocean
splashed with exquisite color
dragons dancing across deep Italian waters
glowing under hazel tinted moonlight
In the silver swirling water...
All I could see was you
In a surreal town with stereotypical people
there was one second where time and spaced merged into one
the space consumed by your body and mine
the smiling bartender and the laughing patrons disappeared
As though leaking through the floor boards
Everything became dark and I melted into you
With souls of lost angels dancing around your smile
I walked through the jungle of your mind
I started on your tongue and worked my way to your heart
Through caverns of sadness, happiness, loneliness
Love, hate, anger, passion, and tranquility
I learned almost instantly to travel by touch...not sight
In the darkness I tripped and fell into you
With a constant beat behind me
A beat I felt but never heard
Perpetual motion surged through me
I watched you lying on a cloud
As I danced in the rain...
when the rain slowed down...
the clouds had soaked through
there began that hazy autumn morning
when I tripped and fell into you
Lost in your eyes, I lost sight of the world
In the darkness and the clouds...
through the oceans and the rain...
I tripped and fell in love.
