I dreamt I saw you
in the poem of us
naked as rain running
down our cheeks
releasing a breath
into the world
it goes
you ran your mouth
across my cheek
did you ever notice
when our hearts stop
we bleed the saddest
love song
I want to wake
with the sunrise
all the songbirds
with broken wings
flying everywhere
subtle as the sun
as long as they are quiet
I will breathe into you
and bleed out the
saddest love song
eyes wide open
sorrow shadow
in our own songs
It’s a long way
to give our bodies
to the ghosts
but in our happy day
love will open up
words like shrapnel
and we will bleed
the saddest
love songs
