minding abandon
the caked covered skin
of how we feel
slurries memory
peeling the maze layer
of how we place ourselves
back in time
we lick the tracks
of our wounds
again and again
for the salt of sentiment
is meant to dry tears
from the bones drawn
from what pooled desires
we didn't find
there is no bloom
more fleeting
than love sometimes
this marriage knows
as love's let go
where in the wind
it goes to carve
who was here
who was near
the heart of you or
I digging into dark parts
all the time for sunshine
the parts,you might
have been willing
to share without cost
once before
but now know
the cost certainty
emptying the night sky
of stars between us
is what every vein
thirsts for now
love sealing doors
shuttering windows
against the light
and the night
waiting to catch
what will run
off how we dug
for gems only
to find abandon
