who would have known that a boy like him 
would have entered me lightly restoring my blisses

who would have known that a boy like him
after sharing my core would stay going nowhere

who would have known a beauty this immense
who would have known a saintly trance
who would have known
miraculous breath inhales a beard loaded with courage

who would have known that a boy like him
possessed of magical sensitivity
would approach a girl like me
who caresses, cradles his head in her bosom

he slides inside
half awake half asleep
we faint back into sleephood
when i wake up
the second time
in his arms gorgeousness he's still inside me

....?... who would have known ...?....

a train of pearls, cabin by cabin
is shot precisely across an ocean
from a mouth
from a mouth
from a mouth of a girl like me
to a boy, to a boy, to a boy
