while you're so golden...
while you're so golden,
let my dry eyes take in
summer skin, sun-soothed.
shapes perfectly reveal in this light.
I'm scared to lose it, lost
to sands swept by turbulent surf,
sent beyond oceans of time.

as you nimbly display form
on tender brown, hands obsess
for essence of youth, once mine,
now sealed all these years, captured
only on thin film in decay --

because I'm scared to lose,
lost by an ocean's discontent,
while a hovering moon implores
day in, night out
we each wither and die to the tide.

if memory true, afford me youth
soothed, so dry eyes contain golden sun.

interchangeable words, inspired by beauty equal to mine in youth.
