That night when you kissed me,
I left a poem in your mouth,
and you can hear some of the lines
every time you breathe out.

It was posted by someone on FB. It could be a song lyric or anything.

And ever since that night
You have become my every breath.

I keep poems like secrets and then tell them when I'm tried of hiding who I am.
I am missing you most
in the silence between songs on my favorite record.
Sometimes it takes so long for the music to start.


Is there a shoreline where the seaweed holds the rocks so tight they soften into sand?
Is it too late to say that's how my heart feels in your hands?
Like you could sift it through an hour glass and pass it off as time
never stood still, and neither did I.
But I will
if you let me.


In your arms I forget what the yarn knows of sweaters.
I forget how to hold myself together.
So if I unfold now like a love letter
Tell me you'll write back soon.
Tell me you'll still come untethered.


I saw the moon last night for the first time in months.
She reminded me of you, slouching, stubborn in the light.
I'd fight battles with the sun to rest against you tonight.
To feel your breath on my pillow,
those song birds outside your window are dropping feathers like I dropped words.
I'm cold from all that came out wrong.
I sleep alone now.


Even when I don't,
I sleep backbone to floorboard because they're softer than regret.
Don't let me go,
Don't ever let me go...
