The urge to extract it has incessantly bugged me since birth

Longer Than Forever
Longer than forever
I will love you longer than forever
The time I've spent alone has convinced me that I am far too old to wait for something more

I could dive into your eyes forever. Spiraling and spiraling forever into the widening gyre, it all feels blurry. Blurry but familiar, like something I knew in a dream or a distant universe.

Tides
Drawn like a magnet,
the moon and the sea.
Water reaching for light,
stars shining in the night,
watching as the moon-
pulls away,
steering the water astray.
