What is and was and will be

I can handle this
Your
lips between
my legs the first time
I remember
I can actually
handle this

hundreds of
intense
impressions
memories
at a time
I can
actually
handle this

Us
both on a
rocking ship
you holding
my camera
I will
handle this

You every
year making
fig jam for me
flinching at my
stupid joke when we run out
haha-
We can
handle this

You handing over the
binoculars to me
watching
goats in the middle of
nowhere
We will
actually
really
handle this

Baby
Your eyes
saying
everything's connected
and I pull back
just a little
thinking
will we
handle this


You
looking
at me
and nothing
is out of place
nothing else needs
to be
added

We will
actually
truly
handle this,
Love
We
will
actually
handle this
Me
