and don’t just listen,
feel it,
feel it in your feet,
let your toes tap…
Arms
Hello sun,
hello shade,
hello hand reaching out….
Half-formed dream
still on my lips,
arms wrapped around me,
kisses on my neck,
except it’s just me,
he’s not there….
I used to want less pain,
less
I-can’t-breathe-it-hurts-so-bad
if it hadn’t ripped open my guts
in the whirlwind…
