used throated bookstore
shelved with inflamed
broken
hearts. stones bricked
high with
piles of soft veins; we
disappeared
into leather fairy tales.
all
my words are following
me into the next life and
as you
hold my palms over my
feminine
nerves, our platform
starts to
read us.
i exist now only in
your new and sublet
carriages
are rolling along our
heartless
sleeves. there; i am
tattooed in
all your bodies’
synonyms. I am fearless
jade tattooed inkless on your
synonyms.
i hear the waves crashing
against
this death of night
noise; i can
drown velvet inside these
turquoise tunnels
while the breeze outside
the waves mourn
only white in our clouds.
this sleep must be
numbing
my handcuffs because i
feel
soft cuts across our
horizontal torsos.
your arms your legs your
heat your
fears of being fearless;
do not worry
my love, i have you.
i have you
i have you
i have you
i will never leave your
world.
