i can tell this is slippery.
forget me when you're ready to leap.
talk like this is easy—
picked out of the ether—
so sleep.
sleep, and i will grieve when you start dreaming.
my best bits are in the remembering,
pulling you from conscience streams.
i can give you this porous poetry,
this weird running,
but regretfully nothing more concrete.

I see flashes of who we were, are, could have been
As though reflected in the windows of passing metro trains.
You cannot tell me you love me in your own language,
a language too serious for people like us,
but I see it in your every movement.
I am not so reticent.
I take my heart from my sleeve and pin it to yours.
Chasms pass between us, and doubts circle like wolves,
and we build our bridges and we light our fires,
but I would consume the moon
if it meant you would howl only for me.
Why are we here? My love?

Siren Song
I want the crook of your shoulder
to bury myself in, breathe deep
until I feel anxiety uncoil inside of me,
melt in the waters of love so deep
fear couldn't step a foot inside without
sighing sweetly for that smell on your skin,
the one that does me in, damns me
and saves me all in the same breath,
I am blessed and never knew
the name of God except the one I thank
for crossing your path with mine,
that divine movement evident only
in the day I looked across the room,
met your eyes and cried, I found you.
