Sinew and locks
the lines of your face, your brow
your nose
your chin
I can't see your eyes
I can feel them
your hair, falling in my face
my face against your face
in your hair
*what am I gonna do
so crazy-you-
my one and only*
I wasn't expecting you
again, you've blindsided me
the moments that matter
are those that take your breath away
and you had me there
for as long as I could remember
Now you're all I think about
once your face graces my synapses
maybe it's the way you looked at me, often
it's probably because of the space between us
and the moments we speak
that leave me hanging on thoughts of you
I remember this
but it's like fire every time we touch
so crazy-me
this is how you wreck me, again
