Had I known / you would sit on my arms / and tickle the space between kisses / I would have run / to the other side of the street. There the pavement seems even.
slight rustling of wind / buried across / my thought
minutes stretch between words / motion sublimated to sound / you breathe as one not living
I wanted her to think I could sing / that her beauty resonated some kindness within me / but what I truly desired was her smile / lock it away with key / parade / her smile/my kindness / sing
