It is only melting away
And into
Deep, deep, deep
Your wings
Folded into mine,
A perfect fit
We will fly
High but slow
As if in deep sleep
We will drip
Into each other's pores
Drop by drop
We will spill
Out of each other's lips
Sip by sip
As if living on borrowed time
Of the sun ahead
As if we have always been one,
Unafraid.
Happy Valentine's Day, fellow writers, readers, humans.
