Under the Brooklyn Bridge

I'll wrap my love around you
just the way you let me ride around you, above you, below you, even through you
I'll let the brights of your eyes reflect its stoic charm
tall, dark, and handsome
your walls of stone keep their luster as they crumble inside out
pillars strong enough
to keep us standing on two feet
...
but you need me to keep you alive
bridging gaps between two hearts
is no easy task
we'll meet in between
holding hands as we cross paths
suspended by the beauty in our sky
we'll linger through the night
mesmerized
eyes divulged in eyes
moon shadows reflected in our bodies
of water
your symmetry, your grace
keep my language simple:
you're just a harp
playing unwavering notes
in my heart.
