half my heart in pennsylvania

they say

I’m not supposed to be

split in half

I’m supposed to be

whole on my own

 

but what if I want to be

cut open

 

spit out and

you hold me close

 

waking to an open window

in a city you don’t sleep

and the lights only

flicker on when you’re a match

then I can see them

 

pull me north

where I can land

without falling

just falling for

another day we can call ours

One wonders what your other beloved half is
