Portrayal of Faith in the Tempest

Exhale - you steal my oxygen;
Inhale - I steal your mind.

Tumbling through a symphony
Of mismatched thoughts and rhymes
Each note, each color, warps the balance
Gravity no longer cares
Delirious yet mysterious -
Are you even there?

Heart racing, soul chasing
Desperate embracing, fingers tracing
Outlines of the shadows
That the light casts on the wall
Darkness is the only thing
that makes any sense at all.

Feelings evade, sensations invade
Emotions betrayed, heart dismayed
By the masters of time and space
That keeps us apart for now
Patience is a delicate branch
That we're both perched on somehow.

Accept - you cannot change the wind;
Reject - the fear that comes to kill.

Speeding through life's traffic lights
Careless and unafraid
Waiting for the right time and the right place
To be beautifully portrayed.

Dedicated to Chris <3

You are officially my favorite poet on this site at the moment. I love your use of word play and how you seem to so effortlessly turn antonyms into beauty that belongs together. I wish I knew the underlying story behind it but even if I didn't the beauty and eloquence of your wording is what made it on my favorites list. I love this, and I've subscribed to you. Please give me more! :)
