That night, he said,
That night under tears and rain,
You raised a man from his shadows
You taught me how to be myself again.
You tore your soul, he said,
You let some seep into me
Warm summer wafting
Through Frostbitten lips.
Don’t you turn, he said,
Let your eyes flow into mine
My sweat dances spirals
Wherever your fingers touched.
Never ask me again, he said,
Never ask what came before you,
For all I knew was darkness, darkness
Laced with rain and tears.
