I want to eat your words and
swallow them so
maybe I can internalize some
elemental you that
evades me as we speak
♥♠♣
It is here that hesitancy
is worse than fears I
cannot name but see
crowded together in rooms
off the corner of a ledge
laughing, laughing, always laughing
♥♠♣
I stumble where I want to explain
here, take me and see what
you can make of ruins
water with words that
soothe something superficial so
I can carry on
