You are my book

Eager chapter endings

Keeping me under the sheets

With a flashlight

I grip you tight 

With both hands

As if your truth will flow 

Faster

But it is all in time

You have no genre or sense

Of flow

You are all around me

Every word

Stretching and pulsing on my skin

They hold me together like

A crossword puzzle

They break me apart

As a fierce tide hits a sand castle

No binding, but the spine my fingertips graze

As you lie asleep

No chapters but moments of bliss

And an everlingering scent

of familiar pages
