Literature Text

you're a cicada,
both in voice
hemmed to my eardrums,
and in(c)lined in the spaces
of a love

launched.

still age,
this divinity
is once in full
dual-noons
and this
is once 
in a lifetime
of many dues.


many hues
of the sky;
i feel who
you are:

drinking our whispers at dusk,
and swallowing the weight
of it all at dawn.

we are hiding alone
together,

in the light-
ness of new days
and the bright-
ness of closed eyes.

(because it's been said
a million times,
but you see everything clearly
when you're blind.)

lovestruck like lightning--
it struck twice before
we finally got it right.

encapsulate the heavens
in the pods of our mouths
as we hold it, breathless

we feel our longing lungs
through the past shades
of loneliness-- now open
blinds to a day
just beginning.

and the room is spinning
because this is a childlike
happiness that has bud its
head like a rose.
episodes of atlantic,
i lose myself in the
riveting rivulets
in the expanses
of our ocean;

a swelling rapture
glides in the nucleus
of even the smallest moments.
