Navigating You
If I had a map of your body,
I would erase all of the places I love.
So that I could never get hurt,
and I could never hurt you.
You would float off the page,
and I would fly too.
Souls intertwining above, scattered from erasures
below.
Collect your favorite body parts and
Etch-a-sketch them together.
Before you get too attached,
shake the pieces and restart.
Hardest among parts to find is the brain.
Easiest, the heart.
You didnβt break my heart,
you broke my brain.
And now all I can do is process you,
think about what we did,
and what we wonβt do.
If I had a map of your body,
I would erase all of the places I love.
