the chase

Let's go to a place where nobody else has been,
where the shores are shallow
but the tide keeps us clean.

Let's forget that this sky won't stay,
forget about the waves
that insist we float away.

With your fingernails grazing my spine,
make my heart beat faster,
let our breath entwine.

Anchor me to the earth with the taste of your smile,
darling, hold me together
for a little while.

Just promise to let go when the night is done,
so I can spend my days
alone
finding new ways
to chase the sun.


Ps. I now understand why artists use the title 'untitled'...
