Hold out your hand
naturecitymemorytimelove
Hold out your hand
Spread the fingers
Flat upon the window
I can see every line
The imprint it will leave
Memorised
If I hold out mine
On the other side
Lie it flat
I touch you
In overlay
Two imprints
One on either side
With barely a splinter
To pass between them
A silica of heat blasted sand
Furnaced into a glass castle
Rescue me.
There was a lipstick kiss
Once shared like that
I remember how it felt
To be so close
Without a touch
The divinity
Of such imperfection
Stays with me
As the air moves
A breath of you
Is released
Intoxication is a rarity
Without assistance
But for a moment unbroken
With the impossibility
Of infinity
You lie
Next to me
On a bed of
Blood red roses.
