for me to continue loving you
is to demand that you keep the light of the sun
inside your palms
i cannot tie a rope on your whispers and keep them
inside the confines of my ears
things escape, air rises, light dissipates,
molecules scatter in random, atoms fuse and
explode and change arrangements
i cannot keep a cold forever or a cough to hold its departure
or a sneeze to keep it secure inside my nose
blowing up, exploding, bursting, popping,
these are necessities of life and we are now doing each
we could not wait after all these things shall follow
the consequential silence. Listen, they are all here.
