my love...

In moments
when i only had the dark
it was within the line of short love songs
that i found you
Within the warmth of woolen blankets
that I held you

When midnight broke open/
unfolded
it bruised my heart
waiting for you
Made a rash on my stomach that
would itch for days

Now in the dark
your love
cracks over my knees
at night as we lay

It falls into my hands as we sit
Its weight erotic in my palm
Slipping through the
slightly open window
A gentle wind
handling my skin like a lover
and splitting a season

I find brilliant poetry
under your heart
as the heat collects
on your skin
and lays between us forever
in a fiery concentration

my love...
