Valentine Lyrics by DKMH

2019

Land to sea
Salt crust, high tea
Twentieth day,
Thirty-three short
Seeing you I came up short
The day I met you, started like this
I had not yet discovered bliss
Blissfully awaiting that fateful date
Cruise through new streets,
Wide open tarmac
Leather back,
Youk trees, birds, seas
Take me back so I can hold it
It is time,
Fine like sand
It dances and falls through my hand
Take me back so I can feel it
Feel meeting a stranger
I remember, is it the first house?
Houses one, two or three
That one,
With white walls, green arches
That one with a softness in its garden
Tires stop,
Engine hot
Hands on the wheel and time stood still
And then rushed forward
The western sun spilt shadows across your lawn
White door opened and I saw a perfect form
‘Twas you
I kept poise, profile forward
Scared
Can she see me?
My ifs and buts came to a halt,
Your hand cradled the door and then a jolt
Open
I saw your bronze skin in the door opening and in
Leg first, white skirt
Softening
Without a word,
Without flirting you sank in
Seats like buckets flowing over the brim.
Then ‘twas you
Poised, profile forward
Scared?
No.
You turn and you look me through
I had never seen someone like you
You pierced me in daggers of blue
Topaz forest with a trillion cut edges
The pressures of life, has forced out a diamond
Earth’s rarest at a mere six inches from my ear
Then she spoke
Without a joke,
Or a moment of fear
Though destiny had shown me her face,
I was stopped and stammered in this place
I drove forward, not knowing exactly where it was,
Exactly that I was going to be going
We travel through the day,
Making our way up the brown lines of the earth
Exploring many areas,
Some new, some old
We eat, bold
Eyes locked in an unfamiliar mold
I can’t peel away
Like an orange, citrus cracking under the pressure
No.
You’re more like a sweet peach
Nothing to measure
Except sweet,
When our eyes meet
To ask
To wonder
To fall
What a day
What a first day it has been,
For you and me
Land to sea,
Salt crust, high tea
Twentieth day,
Thirty-three short
Seeing you I came up short
The day I met you, ended like this
I turned to you and I put my hand on yours
It was smooth like silk,
Warm like bed
I softened and moved towards your head
I proclaim my desire like a Shakespearean fable
And then after merely a moment,
I put everything on the table
We kissed
It was simple, it was bliss
You had me
My heart was in your hand,
Before you could even understand
You’re a map,
Evil right up your back
Toes to the top of the stack
