Girl. If you were as close as
You could, those would not be the
Covers of your bed against you.
You'd wonder how many arms
I had; you'd ask how something
Could so hold you.
That is how close I would be.
Between your skins.
Within your withinnermost.
I would find you. I would dig
Until I found you; separate you;
Open your smile to mine.
See you seeing me seeing you as
As naked as anything without
Anything; final, final self.
That pillow; my arm. That pillow;
My other. That cover is not from
Feathers; I envelope you with
My ownership of the bed we lay
Upon, if I must. I claim what I
Crave; your rest. Rest.
