Draw me a line
Sloping and slow Outward to meet you We forgot In coming full circle To leave me a path From the pivot point Of our compass So while you are free In endless orbit I can only pirouette Keeping my eyes on you Flicking my neck with each turn So I don't teeter Fall into the chasm Of white space separating us Perhaps you will write me a story If ordinary lines don't suit you A brief tale of arduous journey From center to circumference And if I make it To that outer ring Will we ever meet along it? Or will you spin too quickly for me to catch up? I could traverse the opposite way Create our own atomic collider But would the impact destroy our worlds? The focus on perfection Of making the open ends meet Overshadowed the need for intersection And now Just as before I must be rescued

I want to lay content as a cat in the sun
Eyes heavy lidded Warm My breath unhurried But I am a perpetual motion machine With a flutter in her chest And thoughts racing a Grand Prix To see who can cross the finish line Of second guessing first |
