so.

i want to merge you with my air
consume you by
lighting you up
toke
hold
exhale

and from so much of you
even as you are surely bad for me
i could see you written prettily on my air
and when i got you out you’ll still be in my hair
even when you aren’t physically there

and in this way you would become
more
a part of me than any other
tall drink of water
than any other purity that could enter me
how much more alive can you be
than both in my lungs
and on my breath
and how beauty ….
to be in unity
yet simultaneously
setting you free?

only problem with this joy is
one day
you’ll surely kill me…
