Nothing to Name

An affair, an indiscretion
A romance, a fling
Something worth living
If it makes you feel alive

Without title, non-committal
something simple

Buoyant, unsinking
and rising from the depths
of something unknown

No weary, no trouble
unrestrained, carefree
Somewhere baby,
Take me baby,
Take me there.

He Hurts Me

He hurts me
Unknowingly(?)
takes his clean blade
with a clean cut
lets me bleed it out

I’m giddy for his time
I’m giddy all the time

He hurts me
in the memory
a pinch of salt
and a stinging slap
my reality fades out

I’m fighting a losing battle
I’m losing the battle to fight

scars.

Elephant Shoe

I said it against your skin
Whispering breath
I made the letters
with my fingers
Gently
and hushed, pressed to
your warm cheek
I mouth the words
I dare not speak.
