blink

 

Your steps are small

but the distance they create

puts me 

at the other side

of your world

***

before sunset I had a coffee  

with drops of milk

and now 

I can only think in 

black and white 

***

As he walks in the room

my shoulders rise to greet him

my neck sinks in the hole of my shoulders
to touch my belly 

and ring

all the bells 

inside

but 

he,

he is already

 gone

I Surrender

Standing between

two windows in a huge room

you touch my face 

you put your hand 

on my knees  

and I surrender 

to the night

before we go back to sleep

-you 

in the frame of my dream

me-

 in the sweet emptiness of this existence
