Literature Text

your hands are curved brackets around my shoulders,   we're okay here
with your coffee scent tangled up in my cheekbones -
i recognise you

in the most unfamiliar way - 

let me know if your pulse is scattered across your freckles like 
blood on the walls
if you can't breathe long enough
to allow your thoughts to seep through metal barriers:       your hands
are forgiveness, i am laddered skin beneath soft eyes,


you smooth my imperfections and sharp angles -
                                                       i breathe you in.
