tubing

If all the rivers flowed to you,

I would so quickly grab my tube,

To ride the current, rapids and all

Eagerly awaiting you after the falls

Arms outstretched and reaching to you

No one said you’d be reaching too,

Falling fast you catch my hand

Pulling me up and on to land

We catch our breath nearby on a stump

Then laugh,  grab hands and run

And jump!

In between

Heart throbbing

Hands shaking

Sweat seeping from my pores

 

Heavy breaths blow past my neck

Sweeping me away to other worlds

Steady hands healing my wounds

Falling deeper with each brush on my skin

Determined stare grabbing at my hips 

Deeper eyes would drown me

 

Let me twirl in the heat between us

For I would give it all

 

Be sure

There is far to go
