Fine

I haven't yet decided
Wether I want you 
To read this or
Not. I see you (no)
Matter what my optic
Nerves are processing. 
These Senses are useless 
For anything else. Fine 
Details the lines of your bones
In your perfect face shadowy
Outlines hide your back 
In that white T-shirt. The length 
Of your contrasted eyelashes 
Against the whites of your honestly
Lying eyes the sandpaper scratch
Your stubble tickling my
Neck the heat of your pillowy 
Lips sending tidal wave
Sweetness to every cell arching 
My back to meet your hips we 
Belonged tangled up 
Tangled up
In knots now my stomach
I ingested your venom your
Pattern so intricate 
and beautiful that 
I had to see it up close. Closer.
The closest I could get now 
Nausea now nothing now I'm 
Not sure if I should send this or
Let you believe 
that I've just died.

Washed up

It's low tide in our place-
Tide pools and sandbars 
Replaced our depths.
 ocean hearts magnetized
And pulled out with the moon.
That day I jumped into your
Ocean eyes hypnotized 
By our chemistry you
Left my body on the sand 
Like a creature washed up
By hurricane surf.
Stranded. Dry. Only 
Accompanied by stale seaweed 
And hermit crab shells. 
To be carried eventually
Back to sea this time 
Missing the life you stole 
Away from me.
