When I lie down beside you
Your fingertips whisper to me
Secrets that you don't even know you know
Your touch belies your desire
Like live-wire sparks fly
When I lie down beside you
And Lord knows I am yours
Spread me open
Unfold me like wigi
Without speaking I will convey supernatural communications
Like clandestine alphabet
beating beneath my chest
Like this way means yes
Like never having to second guess
Like prophetic text made manifest
Like rapture
Like crackles
When I lie down beside you
Press against me
I am strong enough to receive the message you are delivering
Believe in the taste of my devotional
Notice the way i melt for you
Let every tear be dripping elixir
Let your sweet exhalation fill me
Let there be laying of your hands on my body
Memorize my topography
Listen to the whisper of my history
I am physical science
When I lie down beside you
Lay archeologists to my landscape
There are birds needing to be unearthed
True this traveling securest roots through my veins
I hold all of your answers rattling in my wrists
And revelation with bliss
Remix in the glistening on my lips
And matched disclosure
Chance for chance with a dancing in my hips
I can uncurl my defenses if you let me
Lay the manuscript of your meaning at your feet
Discern your direction with a cleft of intimate
Which held of before me
I am your diviner
When I lie down beside you
I am your trail of astral projected breadcrumbs
Made our natural cartographer
Spirit guide in the flesh
Unwind my DNA and view the blueprints of my destiny
And then rest with me
Breathlessly
Set your cares with the nautilus of my ear
There they will mingle with the whisper of eternal rolling ocean
I want to hear
I will hide them like sunken treasure
And they be there within
Whether you ever retrieve them
Waves crash great
When I lie down beside you
You riptide into me
Let me love you hand to mouth
Cheek to cheek
Speaking tongues against my skin
You are delicious beyond recognition
I give in to this precious potential
Like constellations weep in appreciation of our creation
Like spheres, wax, harmonic
Like everything spinning in unison
Like we are more than our human mechanization
Or molecular combinations
We are mysteries constantly unriddling
I am particular night sky
When I lie down beside you
So take me
And make me your astrology
Plot your path by my best star
I offer it like open bomb
Like conviction
Like undeniable truth
Like specific blessing
Like honest
Like you inside me
Like lightning striking twice
Every single time
So take me like i am meteorology
Take me like metaphysics
Take me like poetry
Take me like i am
I am
When I lie down beside you
