Teach Words

Teach me

the stars

in the dark

on your bed

in your heart

so its hard and fast

and smooth

like glass

and strong

like your arms

at my waist

so it's warm

in the place

where your hands

meet my sea

make me cry

at your lips

and forget that I'm me

teach the night

to my skin

under the moon

and soon

and you

can have all my secrets

all the ache

at the base

of my spine

down

down

down

to the water

at my feet

teach me sweet

the way you know it

best

at the ends

of my lines

and our

eyes

as they meet

to promise

release

teach me the stars

in the dark

on your bed

with your heart

and I promise

to teach

you to meet

the sun

in the wake

of my need
