In the bed, pain and exhaustion, our sweat
drips on the body between us- a love
unyielding and still unconformed to hate.
We stay united in the evening like schooling fish.
We walked at the edge of the rocks.
I watched you approach, turned
back to my life away from you-
A purer way through this time spurned.
My heart connects to yours through time and space,
so close I feel the pulse of your jugular vein
If I slip and grab at you again and face
another failure to prevent you pain
then hold yourself in your hands and weep
only for the rapture and hurt of a love so deep.
