mornings lost evenings dreamt away
sheets crumpled legs splayed
[gasping]memories whispered on raw lips
[breathless]promises dripping from finger tips
i hesitate to turn
afraid reality will slip away
and with it the memory of you
lying in darkness fumbling words
things never spoken/ever heard
a whisper...breath...quiver...moan
secret language only -your- body knows
gardens tremble days break
and still not a breath to take
and still
you are here
lying motionless a-b-s-o-l-u-t-e-l-y
S...[do not move]
T...[do not breathe]
I...[do not wake]
L...[do not sleep]
L...[-do- NOT let this go]
one missed moment is all it takes
to lose to slip away
i do not want to lose
you [dont slip away]
...are still
stay here
--with me--
