silver sheets
rain falls
from my eyes
scattering diamonds
Tag: contemporary poetry
I fall into your
crystalline warmth
structures resurface
long forgotten
kept
a star fell into my hand
and I swallowed him
into my belly
sharply sweet
glowing
hairs magnetic
lips slick
skin memorizing
blackberry kiss
crystal teeth
shelter that speaks
breaking down
becoming his
like nature taught me
I yield
folding
into connection
stripped
turned under
bearing devotion
silk sun
flower
sigh open
shadows spill
over
salt wet skin
i cut the sky into shapes
jagged pieces crash to earth
i scoop up the tenderest parts
taking nothing else
but love
By the scruff
of my neck
teeth
gentle against skin
I shiver
puddle
to the floor,
kneeling.
