beautiful you : faithless I With your face in my hands and all but my thumbs immersed among your hair a tear slipped from the slate and trickled beneath my palm beautiful you and faithless I watching the sun plummet down and then die Our pulsing bodies tumble to a music heard nowhere else by no one else while wind rolls from your lips sent crashing to the floor resolute you and shattered I share a mattress and the will to comply We topple into the streets wide eyed head spinning sunbathed simple careless love with shame left to weeping in the basement underwater resilient you and bashful I live in denial of each other’s goodbye Written June 22nd, 2001 © on Oct 24 2001 03:31 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
