What Do I Do In Love?

I sculpt your face on every mirror of my house
With the sharpness of my eyelashes

I etch your face on the back of my eyeballs
And see you every time I close my eyes

I sail towards your lovely mouth
Like an obsessed sailor
Shipwrecked
But without losing the knots of hope

I swallow the circle of your moon
Only to find oceans spying on me
With high tidal waves of your hairs

I use your name as a verb in my poems
To hide it from every desperate noun
Stalking you forever

I rest my faith every night in your arms
Finding God is otherwise delusional
Without praying all night

Every night!
