Let me drink love words from your  willing lips

Let me  read and reread the brail engraved in your fingerprints

Let me breathe in your dreams made of fears and stardust

Let me absorb your flaws like  the sun is absorbed by dusk

Let me trace hopes and dreams on the groves of your ribs

Let me tell you our story with your hands on my hips

Let me thank the aligning of constellations and stars

Let me hold you forever, though forever seems far

I like you
although you leave soon
i will miss you
i will think of you
as we gaze at the same moon
upon you return
i will adorn
you with neck kisses
i will adore
and get whom i've been missing

falling in love again
though this time it does feel more graceful
not quite so fatal
is love still love, when it does not hurt?
my heart is damaged goods,
i dont remember how its supposed to work.

I found a framed photo of you
Under stacks of drawings and thoughts
It was the photo I took and developed myself
Like all of the other pictures I took
you are not looking at the camera,
you are not looking  at me.
I found a photo of you,
and lost abit of myself when I did.
I've been dreaming of you

I think I'll tell you that we're starting to fuse together,

To fit into each others groves

And into each other's  notches

I think I will let you know that like carved wood,

We fit together.

That you fit with me like my skin fits my body,

Like air fills my lungs.

I'll show you how we fit,

My hand in yours,

My head upon your chest,

Our fingers laced like the the fibres of a basket

Like stars we have  aligned

With our legs evenly intertwined

You elicit my smile and and learn about my silence,

I start to know your far off gaze and understand your shyness.

Like I would a broken winged bird I will nurture our love until its pureness surpasses the venom of past serpent(s).
I will run to you passed the hurtle that broke my ankle the first time.
I will rhyme for you enough times to make up for poems made for my past.
I will love you in all the right ways, I will not leave room for the future discovery of old mistakes.
Oh my dear, how I will love you.

still a slave to your memory,
though i have quasi-healed
i have found sanction in him
in a love that is real
you,
ball and chain on my broken heart
he,
the thread that has sewn the two parts.
I will love both of you,
one willingly,
one not.
until the day comes
that you've finally gone
