This should be a poem about your fragile clavicle or your casually elegant fingers or your delicate neck--about how whenever I kiss the skin on your hips it feels like pressing my lips into silk. This should be about your smirk and your uncreepy wink and the way you text me at 2 AM and how you kiss me in public like we are the only people in the room. Instead it is about how I should have never memorized the shape of your palms; about how now when you are gone I can't seem to forget how they felt on the curves of my hips, the back of my thighs, and the edge of my heart.
I am not scared of heights. Standing on the roof of a 100 story building does not take the wind out of me or give me pause. True fear is standing with my feet firmly on the ground, realizing I can't wake up without thinking of you that is the the most terrifying.
This should be a poem about how much I want to fall in love with you one day and wake up with the back of your neck in my mouth. Then do it again. And again. For as long as you let me.
This should be a poem.
I guess, maybe, it is. Maybe we are.
Or perhaps, one day we will be.
