I May Live Here With You Poem by Suki Nakamura

I May Live Here With You



i may live here with you
in the same house that your mother left you
for fifty years
and another twenty

you may have talked to me
and i may have answered with the sense that i can muster
you may make love with me
but it shall only be my body

my heart died years ago
i had no choice and i never told you

life is not a choice either
it is given and then it is taken
