Infinite as galaxies unexplored,
nameless for the colours of beauties unknown,
a frozen moment pondering a description.
A silent breath that escapes your lungs
during the intervals where I breathe you in.
I want to capture what you are in my hands
so that I can examine intimately
I want to lay you open so that I can see
all that you are.
- a complex mixture of bone, muscle,
a pounding heartbeat, electrical impulses
and nerves
specifically designed to be
a life
alongside mine.
