You're inches underneath my skin,
cut me open and I'll bleed the colour of your eyes.

But that's what love is, isn't it?

I find traces of you in my arteries,
my pluviophilic lungs gasp
for the petrichor lining your throat
and I swear
our ribs fit like puzzle pieces.

(I trace the lines in your palms
and they mimic my scars)

((Not even Zeus could separate us))
