when the desperate sunken breaths
begin to quell
and the
clenching freedom
is gone
i search my chest
cavity, for your exact definition
naive obsession
you are the apple
outside the garden
where do i lay my head in sadness
when i only have the warm crutch
the space between your shoulder blades
and the nape of your neck
i am defining love
tonight
holding you close
how do i scribble at small punctures
when i've only ever known a black hole
