In Hand-

staring after him
waiting
wanting
aching
taking myself in hand
secretly in dangerous places
nothing i say is right
he keeps not getting it
my words don't rip the blindfold
from his mind
what i mean into what i say
doesn't translate for this man
that i need so much
the obsession takes me over
until all i can think of is
glimpses of oranges and reds
in the sky outside my window
casting shadows on his skin
my eyes rolling back as
the stretch of it is too much
too much and so good
and then i come back to myself
and it's still just a fantasy
***

Sometimes It’s Us

sometimes it's luck
the bad and the good
more than anything else
where the needle tips toward
fate rather than mistake
that leads me to you on a
winding
confusing
perfect path
because of who i am
and who you are
really are, more than
i thought or expected
that i deserved
and so here is my heart
because it's the journey
that made us and no
mistakes will break us
because we won't let them
because sometimes luck
turns out to be good
***

Rooted in We

it's true and solid now
like my roots finally took
and we've made it home
in each other's hearts
ecstatic in my view of you
the way your eyes light
when you see me
the way your body lifts
when i walk into the room
you are a sensory delight
in every way
and time will only deepen
my joy in what we've made
