I saw fire light, this night whilst
your fingers skimmed my jaw.
It's way past time but
your face is inches from mine
and my fingers dance freedom
on your skin; sleep is for
the absence of him.
I saw star light, this night whilst
you dropped words like bombs.
I'm so tired today I can taste
the movements of molecules haste,
tripping in each moment bare
and slipping through sweet salted air.
I saw moon light, this night whilst
you oscillated each villain of me.
This is the very first winter
since he went and he kissed her,
that I have been free; able to see
each shade of light, this night.
