my cells have their own theories and fruits of dying
even porcelain dreams
when I am with you I enter the tunnel of vision
I can see better what happens with fused from confused
me and him trapped in the asylum of gestures
somnabulists through our own skins
while they are busy scrolling
God forbid to hear the sadness of a time
that is getting darker and darker

earth quakes,
to see you cry

but where there's water
there is life

a love that fights for air

aloof, above the alibi,
the ad-libbed acts
of subterfuge

where proof is in the fire
of your making..
for those days
when one seems
crushed by doubt

the scars on my body, even three years later,
  remain emboldened and raised on my flesh
   serving as a simple yet harrowing reminder
  
that this body never belonged to meβ€”
                  and that it never, ever would.

my heart is very big
               there is much room for you here
     to curl up in the hollow space
                             won’t you stay a while?

Tapping
sleepy gathers

in the bombed-out
church of expectation,

fundamental frequencies

too cynical to pray

Because
the senses crave
mistake

I worship
from afar

these days,

when everything
that's ever loved

leaves something else

betrayed
