I saw the curve of your back in the pale blue light of dawn, your legs pushing back the sheet as we tangle, tangle. I see myself in dark half-lidded, drug-kissed eyes. We are ghost-skinned at six in the morning, crushing into each other, seeking the heartstrings that we can wrap ourselves around. We are the blind leading the blind, murmuring, "Beautiful, beautiful." I have no words for the way our bodies struggle against spirits into flame, out of breath, out of night.
