i draw mountains on your
skin
because my secret is
you are my mountain and
my secret is
you are my home and
my secret is i
sleep in your breath and i
shower in your tears and i
bake bread under your fingernails
my darling.
i rest between the bones of your
spine and i
laugh in the crevice of your
collar bone and i
drink tea in your
eyelashes and i
warm myself by your skin i
sigh by your
freckles and i
moan by your
lips and i
lock myself away behinds your
shoulder blades i
store my secrets behind your
eyes
because
my secret is i
trust for you to
keep my
secrets safe.
my secret is.
you are my mountain and
my secret is
you are my home and
my secret is i
don't write poems because
my secret is i
haven't had a home in which to hide my secrets but
my secret is
you are my home
so here is a poem.
