Marrow

my heart is yours
my breath is taken
with you in exhale
tenderly I am held
in ribs of whispers
center of bones
for you are ivory
love’s essences core

“all romantics meet the same fate”…Joni Mitchell

Forgive my humor but this reminds me of a had boiled egg. Once you peel the shell and salt it, it tastes delicious.

There are a certain few poets in PiP, whose words I miss when I go a'wandering from here, and the missing inevitably draws me back. You're one of them.
