moon III
all we share now is the moon;
mine has your name on it –
so does yours
drinking sunshine, eating stars
with you I’ve been
stripped down and
turned inside out
made anew and raw,
drinking sunshine
eating stars
come play
with me
again
kiss VII
suddenly you kissed me
and the world stopped
the world stopped
spinning
the world stopped
spinning me
around
'my darling'
you can’t call me ‘my darling’
I am not yours; not
anymore
words with lovers II
now you give me words
I once wanted to hear
when I once wanted you
you slowly work them
into everything when I
no longer want anything
words with lovers I
you are a language
I am learning slowly
tongue stumbling
with unfamiliarity
tumbling into
uncertainty
speechless,
twisting at
the very
sight of
you
iffy
I don’t know
what I hate more:
when you come
or when you go
impossible
tell me again
how they took you away -
no one told me it was possible.
