Sweater

you trace the soft lines

the slender loops

and the soft designs

with a lazy, wandering gaze

 

the questions and curiosities

sit comfortably silent

 

you do not ask

and I never tell

 

that you are the softness

that lingers in distant memories

you are the warmth

remembered across centuries

a constant in the sea of time

a love, never owned

but forever mine

I See You

i see the warm sunshine on your lips

and the colour in your closed eyes

as the day unfolds into uncertainty

 

i see the colours of your dreams

and the silent canvas right before

the first word breaks free

 

i see the abyss stretching underneath

each breath, a sanctuary

for the rebellious hope to survive

 

i see you

i see you in me
