i see leaping laughing over me
the sun rises and sinks, rises and sinks
each time you smile
i adore you, i implore you not to
uncage me, open my ribs and unleash my
beating beaten heart
i wait for you and
i'll wait for you but
don't untie me like a package of
old love letters
don't read all my words, memorize
my stories until you're sure that
when i smile, you can see
the entire day go by.
