Of Depth

I was unbeknownst of the concept of depth

Of what it entailed or of the limits portrayed

I had not known the meaning of the word, of whats that left

Until I was shown, the gravity it played

For what seemed like mere stares of those green eyes

Have found a profound meaning of deep love in display

What seemed like mere simple hold of your hands

Feels more like the depth of trust in play

Had I not known, what would the feeling of being close to you feels like

Would I ever be known, how being deep in love feels like?

Had I not felt, how our fingers entwined together feels like

How would I know how depth in the gentleness feels like?

For now I feel me drowning into the depths of it

Depth as deep as the ocean below

Depth as deep as the skies above

Depth as deep as the universe at times

And most importantly, depth as deep as your warmest embrace, my love

Well my heart now floats in those depths like never before

Has it learnt to swim like you did I wonder

For I don’t think it craves for shore - no more

Safe haven it found and finds yonder

For in the depths, our hearts they merge

In a place like heaven, they wander

In a place like heaven, they wander
