All things being equal
And we know they’re not
I would bathe you in my words
Until the cleansing burned,
Pricked your skin
And you felt that same way,
That same thing
That feeling
That I felt when my eyes first drank you in
when I first heard you say my name.
when a hug seemed like an eternity.
when you knew this feeling, too…
how your laughter is a well that I fall into
tossing, flipping, head over heels
in an endless freefall, never touching ground.
when you know how this love feels inside of me…
growing, for you.
