I

I'm scared--

because I can't see any further than my nose,
and I'm too afraid to inhale
in case your scent's no longer there.

I doubt my own ability
to remain accurate with my memories,
but

I don't want to write it down because that gives way
to the possibility
I may need to re-read it;

it wouldn't give justice to the notes you sang
when you spoke to me,
and I wish

I could've taken a picture every time your rings
of deep brown
held my green-gray-blue swirls with a warmth
the sun wouldn't be able to display

--even if the rain would disappear for a while.

I don't know
what will happen once my tan begins to fade--
and if the phone bill shrinks lighter,
could my soul bounce back as it's been
trained to?

I'm afraid to prepare myself
for the possibility that I might not be able
to feel your hand meshed against mine
if the scotch tape

loses its tack, and our still-life selves
happened to join the other
no-name smiles

in an album I never open.

I wonder
if you could stay so vivid

until I can buy a plane ticket

--

a few years down the road?

Damn. It seems each time I leave here I think to myself - never again can words move me as they have tonight. Yet, here I am again so moved I don't have words adequate to express just how powerful your soul is. Absolutely lovely sweetie. {=} {=} {=}
