Can ears become virgins once more
fresh
I've heard nothing till your words
till 3am
our voices dance across oceans
with a dying warmth in each bed
outlines of nothing
no one in the sheets
no hands moving
searching
just us
but singular

Torture is
having arms with limits
having oceans that expand
and words without warm breath on shoulders
knowing my heat
is wasted

It seems
each step is colder
miles could mean nothing
if hearts could only stretch
if hands could only reach that far

What LeeJ said.
Believe!

Poet, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
