we were distant
but our hearts quickened the same
blood pumped
sweat ran
in my mind
I breathed your breath
Tweets
seasons change – do you?
sunrise streaks yellow
breeze from the sea to the mountains
the first drops of autumn
I slipped
I slipped in the shower
thinking of you
I tripped on the staircase
thinking of you
I think I can now quite unsafely say
I’ve fallen for you
in the shadow
in the shadow gold
cheekbones, hair and eyes
I breathe slow, breathless
the sunrise
the sunset is its promise;
the sunrise is its coming true
balance
I tried to walk the
line but tipped
over, hard.
Yes, I love you.
There I’ve said
it and now I
can’t
regain my
balance.
sky cloud sand sea
sky cloud sand sea
I am dreaming you are next to me
sky cloud rock sea
I am dreaming; you are next to me
you shone
you shone
I reflected
brighter
I knew
than the star
I saw
you were
they pulled off their shirts
they pulled off their shirts
the light through their chests shone dark
dreams slowly gathered
I saw you and was conquered
I saw you
and was conquered
sand defences between the tidelines
inevitably washed away
the guilty moon reflected
on the convex waves
the concaves between each hinting trouble
foam on the beach my and their undoing
castles on the cliff edge
slipped to nothing
I saw you
and was conquered
