she doesn't understand
my depression
hell,
i don't understand my
depression
do you understand
my depression?
does anyone understand
any
depression?
you grip you hold you bear you
breathe
and lurking with no trace of
humor
ready to pull relentlessly yet
teasingly provocative invitingly
suspenseful (oh my what is
this about maybe just LOOK at
it a little bit)
a little
is too much to digest
at once at all
i don't understand why she
doesn't understand isn't this
her kiss?

your island
there is an island for you
more than any dream
toes in the clean warm white sand
turquoise water rushing in gently
singing softly your name
there is an island for you
satisfying and free
cabana boy bringing drinks
olga massaging your neck
whenever you call
there is an island for you
apart and above the fray of everyday
laughter touching souls
hearts sparking love with every moment
accepting, friendly, relaxed
let me be your island
your terms your time your touch
and i will hold your hand
watch the waves, and smile right there beside you
sharing our very best adventures ever.
