For You.

My supporting limbs,

They melt beneath me. 

The choir in my head sings their hymns,

And I am no longer drowning in the sea.

I have been lifted above the waves,

With my arms in the air. 

I am carried above the cliffs and caves,

I am moving far away from there.

My skin glows brighter,

As if the sun is beneath my skin. 

I love when you pull me in tighter, 

I cannot help but give in. 

I feel my heart beating in my throat,

When I catch you looking at me.

And all I desire to do is float, 

Above the waves across the sea.

Im loving the imagery and the emotion behind your words.

"My skin glows bright,
As if the sun is beneath my skin."

What a beautiful likeness!

[R. Nella]

Nice. I rather like this. The emotion is carried nicely through the air and sea metaphors, and the meaning for me is comes mostly from the simple line "When I catch you looking at me", which brings it back to reality.
