Free-fall
You look soft
from where I'm standing
all blank eyes and
shiny lips
please, let me have you
I want to
tangle myself inside of you
and feel your pulse,
rabbit-fast beneath my lips
please, let me
Looks like you're a fragile thing
so I'd gentle my fingers against you
lest I left ugly bruises
on your freckle-scattered flesh
please
Let me breathe into you
without stealing your breath
for our game is not
one of give and take
but merely of mutual free-fall
