we were burning
in lifeless desire
to feel without air
is to be without him
and i take to walk
to echo my thoughts
across you in mine
in my mind at night
and i’m falling to pieces
to pick up as whole
and we’re dancing to become
to be bold as all
like fine wine
restless nights
to dry in time
to ravel in my mind
i take you
to other places
in echoes and oasis
can you hear
i’m talking to you
like how i used to
whisper in your ear
whispers
