he pushes through words
like crowds on a subway

never really quite sure of what day of
the week it is

he's full of rain and of promise and i'm lost
in the mystery of his

thorns

but you can not love a person like this
and expect to survive it

you can not kiss those lips and expect
it to numb his pain or harden his
....
