PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

There is no way to know how you hold me,

how your wishes leave dust on my skin

so I’ll tell you I have too many side weights to be here.

You run with the tigers but you don’t tell me,

wait for the crest but maybe this is it

so I’ll hold myself over you until you catch your breath.

Here you go, I say I still don’t know

push off loving you like you deserve

so the parachute tears my chest as I leave here again.

There is no way to know how I’ll touch you,

how when you catch your breath I always cave in

so please stay here like you let me.
