when you beckon me down to the depths
you should know how far we'll dive,
these love-soaked lungs
fill in the painting with perfect midnight blue.
when you coax me to the clouds
you should know how free I'll fly,
I can gather everything that matters
and let it loose from my chest in one time-stopping shriek.
when you bring me back to earth
let me dream of the sea,
of the sky
you can't give me two more universes
and then take them back.
when I am stuck on the ground
I will live like I am anywhere.
