Pining
Dress me up in silver and gold
Tell me that I'm lo and behold
that you can barley think, thoughts out of control
Raise me up like if to drink
Just to bouyant to ever sink
eyes too wide to ever blink
My body creased to your fold
Guide me through these tempestuous fleets
make me understand that we
are but the architects only given sand
trying to find the promise land
A fallacy persuaded by my demand
Cut me open and set me free
Free from this duplicity
tepid waters cause raging seas
your wish is my command.

Wow wow wow!!! I love this poem
Effective rhyme
And love these lines
Raise me up like if to drink
Just to bouyant to ever sink
eyes too wide to ever blink
My body creased to your fold
Such hyperbolic metaphorical lexis here
