Light
Salomé Bálsamo 2000 (Buenos Aires)
I buried myself in your love.
Your kiss, so powerful.
Your hands mark the path,
to a land undiscovered,
thirsty for your touch and heart.
And, as the waterfalls quench my desire,
your soul brought color to a world
in absence of light.
My body became the soil and crust deep under.
The earth moved to the pattern of the wind and ocean, you.
About this poem
This is a poem about the girl of my dreams. This is the first poem I publish, so I am nervous about the feedback. Here to become better at poetry.
