mudsand

one foot naked

image of love, as he sees love

i lose myself in today

wherewhen i don’t fit in his imaging

if i am to be faithful

to love as i know love

let me know respect

for the both of us

i think for me

that means

a right space between

but oh the spluttering

do i use my words?

or let life do the talking?

what is love like

who am i, and

who are we

my word

i forgot all over again

that we already have

what it is we need

that moment it hits

that love is not earned

and i wish he knew

in his bones too

something i haven’t

the words to say

that ground in a one breath

lands me like the soil

between his fingers and

a lofty dust after rain

may i remember

who you are to me

may i gauge us together with

what is a right space between

like two kids in a sandbox

you building castles and moats

and me wondering the grain’s fall

into a back together

once again with gravity
