Dec 2012
The momentum of time is about the same as my heart rate
The more it is acknowledged the slower it lingers
But this is not so with you

The times you were near
Hair follicles against my collar bones
Crooked thumbs caressing my spine
Legs intertwined

The times you were near
Illuminating the dark spaces in my mind
Your essence makes my mind sing
My happiness

The times you were near
Breath rising my skin
You are the scent of tranquility & leisure
Dandelions

Won't you crawl under a clock with me?
We can rest our heads between 6 and nine
Ignite our spines,
Expand our minds,

We have all the time in the world
But as my love claims
"Time is irrelevant"
