Bound To Be Me

A teardrop in an ocean, blue

Waterfall of joy imbues

Waves of white silk, mourning dew

With clouded thoughts in rainbow’s hue

A shadow in a cavern, dim

A lantern of illumine when

Starlight seeps, honey-golden

Drawing maps to what’s within:

Inkwell of wishes; shiraz wine

Married to the page, each line

Bound as one against my spine

Heart and spirit intertwined
