You, With Your Blue Eyes Poem by Jon Blanes

You, with your blue eyes
heart burning like the sun,
scion of the sky
azure of the sea.
Red wine
blossom lips,
that I kissed
as I held you.
Like the spring
holds the cherry trees,
like the night
holds the stars.

In you I dreamed
a different dream,
as the crystal moon
cast shadows on your symmetry
like the burning candles
of our restless sleep.
Mirror of green ocean
butterfly of dreams,
reflecting my desire in you
and your desire in me.
The dying night
yearning for the dawn,
my dying heart
yearning for you.
