for e m...
don't ask you to
heal me--don't want
to scar you nor
claim too much nor
ask for other than what i
really would like--just
want to
do you.
no lies and
no offers i
could make
without keeping
nothing about
the obviousness
of your beauty...
opportunity, feeling
like a red horizon
grander even
than the flush
to the forehead
opportunity what's between us
maybe
would call it
something better
but no good
with words.
