I wrote this one in August ’10. Click on the image for fullsizeyness. My handwriting’s admittedly little tough in this one, so the full text is after the image. ♥
Eurydice
I belong to you where the great enigmas collide.
So I don’t care to practice restraint at this instant.
I want to embrace it. I want to press it into
a powder and flatten my skin with its soft pigment,
until I taste the traces on my lips. I need you
to appreciate my need to twist this moment round
my finger like your ring, to marvel at the deep blue
jewel. This clumsy, mortal circumstance in which you’ve found
me is anachronistic, limiting. Could’s only
basis here is an unlikely physics. So confound
them for being conclusively inconclusive. We
don’t need their permission. I’ll still hear your song inside
the apparent silences where you can still feel me.
