tonight i am outside
and i am observing the sky
during it's vulnerable state:
the thin line of orange
where the sun is almost entirely declined
because it cannot stand on its tired legs anymore
wondering how the sky came to be
for the purpose of surrounding a lonely sun(?)

i forget
that you cannot live
through eternity
and neither can i
but wouldn’t it be so lovely
to relive the seasons
just to watch
winter’s freckles
fall onto your eyelashes
and summer lighting
your lips gold
because my lifetime alone
is not enough
all we have is years
years are never enough

i want your lips against mine
as pressed petals are
between the pages of books

remember when
i tried to wrestle with the wind
but it folded me into a kite
and i was stuck up in the sky
wishing for someone
with long arms
and a string
to guide me out of a dramatic whirlwind

as a child
time was always honey
dripping from the spoon
now it is the hot tea
being poured
onto my lap

a need:
i need your lips against mine to reunite myself with happiness
a want:
i want your lips against mine to distract myself from the loneliness

what used to be just a little girl
poking in the dirt with a stick
in search of a worm
until the rain came
and i sped into the house
and suddenly time turned
and i, a woman of twenty years
in search of much more
than a worm

you froze in fear
as i came at you with a knife in hand
to cut off the hand of the one behind you
about to twist the knife into your back

you drop the vase
the ground wins
the vase shatters
there is no going back
without the glue
then we remain fragile
watching life on the shelf
and cannot be touched
too much
before we fall apart
again

i just want to be touched
so wholeheartedly
that my skin could never forget about you
even if i have
