Ether

Over the ether,
into your mind
Calling you wistfully...
Leave all behind

Limning our meeting place
showing the way
describing the rocks
 and the pools of the bay

Hasten to join me
in my desire,
aching for blending,
senses on fire

Lay with me in the shallows...face up to the sky
Arms reaching out....... hands brushing hands...fingers entwining
A swaying minuet among the rocks.....the gentle swells pulling and pushing
Hair floating out as seaweed in action....a.dark streaming mass

 Half submerged....warm sun on our bodies...cool liquid coating our backs
Eyes dazzled with light...........yet darkness behind us..........the
pull of the deep
Cast your eyes down to the abyssal zone gloom
Where drift long dead forms..too cold to decay....to still to disintegrate

A strata of density where light barely reaches........invites and repels
Let your limbs fall.........give up the light..............exhaust your
lungs
Watch the bubbles drift up........twisting and
turning............bursting above
We sink down slowly...join the shadowy forms
Limbs entwined..........mouth on mouth
Sharing the last breath
Forever
Together
