I love that you said ‘I feel solid
with you’ because I’m feeling like waves
my mind and my body are swirling I’m swept off my feet and you’re plum
punch and sap

crash

I love how your lower lip
drips down when you kiss
when I kiss
your neck your breasts your belly if your scar
where your womb
was
were to open up I would
I would I

would drown
