it’s so easy
to bite eachother’s tongue. quiet
and concealed like a secret
or the sun.
i left my hand open
the entire night. by the time you tried,
i was heavy with emotion.
we shyed the night away,
and left affection
for another day. i think of you
in a persepective that sees
the box for what it is-
inside, in every corner
in each dimension. you spin
the world in half asleep
closed eye intervals.
the murmer of the world waits
on sleepy breaths
just before the moon comes
to stay. i smile
even when i’m tired. you’re
a song of monotony-
every note’s the same. love
or hate, i am somewhere in between.
wrapped in discontent.
soundcheck me-
i make no noise. hello
every piece of you. somedays i am
contagious, others i am
the common cold confined to
obedient absenteeism.
so i worry my wings away and
try to weigh the day.
