A quiet child in the backseat, with two lesbian mothers A new age experiment with granola and **** I can’t even edge my way into the conversation, I can’t even force it I can’t understand why you leave so much empty space hanging around I need someone to lessen the divide, someone I can see myself in Someone who fills up all the space and doesn't care how Someone who will feast and starve just to know the craving Someone who wants a thrill, who wants to know all the ways we can feel Someone who can match my steps as I walk home, no longer alone Sharply aware of any creatures awake in the dark, because we’re one of them With some kind of tropical taste in my mouth even in the dead of winter I have the empty squares on the calendar to look forward to; I have time to find you.
