.

you keep back . you say . i read . i wonder . i swallow fear

.

.

locking in silence . melodies . deeper sinking . waiting . hesitant grounds where flights are . vibrating . exploring nocturnal lands . all you need . is . what you move in – vent love

.

.

you move . no telling . you clear paths . for me to walk . petals not briars . i don’t know and . want so bad . your colors to see . lay one finger . to trace your contour . defining desire . arousing  . distilled

.

.

distance spoke of safety . and I don’t know . this stranger in me . that . joined to you . felt fear . but they are .  and I’m not . some remote .  safe addictions . runs you too

.

.

waiting . scary emotions . alarmed bells . desire of denial . craving for more . life is a dangerous ride . i don’t see many cheering for us . lonesome . will we steady the storms . and roots sturdy . we nailed them . within our arms

.

.

it’s a scream . elongated . almost infinite . fearful . howling . of the heart . no more . pain . to collect . there . in the abyss . of identification . of sharing . giving . comforting . letting oxygen in  . to survive . longer . the dagger of love . crashing . down on me
