Prisoner (10w)

I am
imprisoned
in consciousness,
searching
for an
escape

I don't really
need you
but I
want you
regardless

Sight Lines

Stretched out my
sight line
like a tripwire trying
to catch someone
off-guard
and you
wandered into it,

stumbled slightly,

yet still
I was the one
who fell.

Seamless (10w)

You somehow
seamlessly exceed
my expectations
time
and time
again

Hands

Your hands fit
perfectly into my
skinny spaces
as if the
primary-school outline
of your palm
was drawn
just for me.

Bubble-Wrap

I can see myself
destroying
my own dignity,
popping it like
bubble-wrap
and watching as it
deflates
under my
forcible
fingertips.

Swimming Lessons (10w)

Teach me to
swim
in the
sound-waves
of your voice.
