i was empty
something was missing
until
recently
you made me whole again.
you give me physicality.
hugs and hand holds
hands holding my face
in between them.
you gave me proximity.
walking on the sidewalk
your breath lingering on my face
when you turned to speak.
sometimes our fingers grazed
you gave me love.
one cannot know love
until it is a breath from the mouth
of someone beautiful.
