falling falling

your arms around me makes it
hard to breathe i feel my
breath leaving my chest
i feel my
soul uncurl from my bones feel the
frozen floor stinging my feet
feel your laugh a shooting star
falling through me

the lump in my throat
front-page news like
people holding hands jumping from burning buildings
sinking and sinking through the
silence of my mind even when i squeeze eyes closed and
try not to breathe

you are a kaleidoscope of colors scents sounds i
could watch the sunlight cross your face all day i
can watch shadow of eyelashes on your cheek and
feel your laugh warm the soles of my feet
hear the singing of my heart over the
black-and-white sadness.
