I never tasted so sweet as when on your lips a screaming kind of sunlight, honeysuckle, breathless summer came early and I with her, I couldn't catch my breath for the glory of you, blown away stripped of pretense, of self consciousness, of consciousness, nothing here but you I caught my breath hiding on your lips I tried to take it back and all I got was nectar

for you, yet again
I love you wildly and in exaltation a joyful shout of passion, sunlight bursting out of my chest, a warmth a laugh I cannot contain, a peace restless in its depth, and you live in a land of cold, and I do not know what you think of me, I do not know if you think of me, I would that I could, would send you a gift of this sunshine- everyone needs some warmth.

snow man
lull myself to sleep by memories of your skin soft under my lips slipping deeper down into warmth- this summer that will never return

pure sunshine
I know this house, but it's not home- my blood has spilled between these walls my tears have watered this cold floor, and here my nightmares learned to crawl. My fingers know each speck of paint I have breathed in each mite of dust my eyes have gazed upon each book my heart still mourns the loss of trust. I bled in ink, I wept in words I laid my heart out, beating, bare I spun entreaties for an ear I found not one was listening there. And if I should return someday, and take my seat back at the hearth- as dancing flames ensnare my gaze, know I have gone into the dark.

Childhood
I only let myself miss you at ends of days in-betweens moments when everything is ending and i I'm losing myself to slipping into your eyes through a screen and over 6,000 miles of sea please pull me back in I miss everything about you I miss the way you smell I miss the way you laugh I miss the way you looked at me so when I let myself miss you only at the end of days is it any wonder that you find your way to slip through the cracks in my walls and I I just miss you I miss you I don't let myself but I don't have to somehow you are you and that is permission enough

short
the gap between filling my eyes with your picture and running my lips down your thighs, kissing you so that fold appears between your eyebrows, filling my mouth with you, watching you unfold beneath me and tracing every letter in this unending love letter I would like to play out for you on every soft space you inhabit is unbearable.

short ii
I wish for you on every lash and every falling star I want to lay down on your chest and hold you in my arms A heart that beats a heart that loves is pulsing in my chest I think it's you- I know it's you- I place above the rest.

You're all laughing and splashing in the shallows, jump in and out as you so please. My legs are stone, my feet are roots, I sway with the currents, I soak in the brine and choke on the salt.

at some point we're going to have to be honest with ourselves and say "this isn't just this it's more" and at some point we're going to have to look at each other and say "you're not just this you're more" and at some point we're going to have to link our hands and take the plunge and know we're scared and say "this isn't just fear it's also more"
