Lighthouse Teeth

you tell me
'baby, we're all made of star-stuff'
i breathe in your words like a promise, I promise
we are northern lights in a bottle,
we shine where we like.

love, you're a sun in the gears of a man
and our bones were made for ocean winds
with our lighthouse teeth.

together,
we are velveteen storm clouds
can you feel
our bodies shake in beautiful tandem?
and you with your solar heartbeat,
we wake up over warm atmosphere.
we live like we love,
we love like we live.

we're dying for a breath of sky,
lungs and love and oxygen
hazy eyes but clear vision
we are going places.

[we shine where we like.]
