Nights only the Winter Remembers

hold me, im scared

i think you broke my heart in another life
this seems too familiar
in a world that has broken both us to almost congruent pieces
we made love like a floating piece of paper trying to define gravity
legs being raised up on your shoulders
like Nefertiti playing hop scotch on her pyramids
i've never loved a women before
i guess i should of been the first
loving in permanent ink was never on the agenda
always becoming a disaster of scribbles and white out
i want to love in cursive
Smooth with no hesitations
just gliding in places i can pour my everything into
just like paper
last night was the first night I didn't sleep in your arms
like they were saving their warmth for someone else
i love with anxiety
i love with a caution signs on my forehead
i refused to allow myself to submerge in someone like this for so long

-vulnerability has me on edge
