Okay #DavidsMonthOfMusic peeps

So far there's never been a challenge in November but as the hashtag has grown I didn't want to not have anything this month. So I've come up with something a bit different...

As always I hope you have fun and find/rediscover music you love!
the swell
and the harbour

delicate words
to conciliate the storm

you ripple
beautifully

build
where the shore was promised

flotsam and jetsam
trinkets of affection

sunset bleeds
into the horizon

foam
at my thighs

as i wade deeper
into you

measure it
in distance

in breadth
and depth

in fluid ounces
and moments

measure it
in improbability

in quintessence
and purity

in measured silence

in tempo
and patience

measure it
then #measure it again

for it has grown
significantly

because somewhere
you exist

i need
simply need
to discover the taste
of your arousal

i could take the night
to its very brink
never taking my mouth
from your fervour

another scene
from another reverie
but it's always you

it's always
your rapture

pen me
something

a verse replete
with visceral truth

for my eyes only
for my heart only

something secret
something sacred

a thing of grace
and gravity

if i make you feel anything
make me feel everything

please
make it so all i think of
is all you dream

just as gravity
has its law

your allure
is as irrefutable to me

pulled

drawn

powerless
against the undeniable force

matter to matter

hearts to hearts

the proximity of particles

the closeness of you

we kick our way through
a bed of leaves
like children

the day was as idyllic as I had believed

your soul as warm as I had dreamed

and as the golden sun falls
into the whisper and hush of autumn

the day is not over

and your lips are as soft as I dared hope

your
lips
and tongue form
the sentiment

our surreptitious
language
that only knows
sincerity

my touch
could never lie
to your skin

and yes
our words bind us deliciously
to one intent

but in the silence
between the softer sighs
our love
screams loudest

between sunrise
and sunset

every subliminal heartbeat

every instinctive breath

thoughts of you
just as frequent

always close

and then i dream
only dreams
that you imbue

the fact i can even consider
we have a history

fills me
with joy

context
in canon

shared

entwined

i love
that there's an us
