I needed you to promise me
that everything would be a vowel
followed by a consonant-
that I could have your bigger littlest finger
ready to loop through mine if I needed it.
I didn't need a mountain rescue or a lottery win
or a mason jar of stars,
I just needed a vowel followed by a consonant,
a hug from the lashes of your eyes
telling me it would all be
ok
