at once, I feel it all suspending
permanent arteries
the weight of helplessness
captured in foreign memories
not unlike a dream
come back to me
with crusted eyes
to show me
the way you used to
hold me
pacify me
wait for me to soften
arms waiting
maybe it’s not quite enough
charming angry thoughts
pen tips dragging along
marring pages indelicately
what an unlikely place
to fall apart
