3 Poems While I Foolishly Fall

September 9th, 2021

1.

I keep holding my breath
And gasping for air when I'm around you
When I think of you

How could I have forgotten that your frame is my own?
I pull at your edges to sew them to mine
Mumbling through intertwined tongues

I never want to let you go

And yet I do
I leave my home again

2.

I am following a loosely drawn plan of my future
Working towards some half-conjured goal

Dreaming of content
Thinking of safety
Creating my security
Searching for any kind of certainty
Something to be sure of
But nothing has been as sure as you. 
You could end up being it all.
