darling, please closer (there’s a story here somewhere)

a lost melody drifting in the air,

slow movements in the dark _

our atoms are dancing tangled together

can you feel the song vibrating beneath my skin?

it’s pointing me at you, it’s singing for you

*

heartbeats of one, two, three, four

yes arms out, feet in the air, body twirling, hands coming together

telling our story, in the dark warm autumn nights

full of beautiful dying things

and us, in the centre

a tragedy of desperate hears& cold cold fingers _

aching for warmth
