I have no mind
For dollars, dates, and times.

I wrote words in the walls
I can't remember
And left images behind
I cannot forget.

The memory of you

Has always been

The faint expression

Across my face

I can't believe it's right

My thoughts to go to

My heart to go to

Putting all restlessness

At ease

You at my side

The list keeps getting longer
Of questions I can't answer
And I'm supposed to be
Here for an education.

I'm scared to be in love with you
Because I know what we'll do
When we have to walk away
And I fear that impending day

I feel the pulse beat
In my fingers
And taste the breath
Of you,
Spilling over my skin,
Heavy,
Like the smooth smoke
Of a cigar.
Holding my tongue
Between your teeth,
You whisper your
Intoxicating prayers,
And surround all thought
In my mind...
