I met someone I like.
\nThe sky introduced us
\nas we watched for a
\nsign, anywhere but here,
\nany time but now.<\/p>\n
She makes me guess \u2013
\nwhispering her secrets to
\nsighing trees, she tucks
\nthem into little holes
\nno one can see.<\/p>\n
Something she said
\ncaught me; hanging
\nin the air like a bird
\nof prey, waiting to dive,
\nbefore I got away.<\/p>\n
It was the truth.<\/p>\n
Like a miracle, she faithfully
\ncomes back to me like I\u2019m
\nsome kind of nectar,
\nmouth open, waiting
\nto dive, one more time,
\ninto my sweetness.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m getting used to the way
\nshe breathes, her rhythm
\nkeeps time with my heart.
\nShe knows where the little
\nholes are – thoughts not
\nforgotten in the dark.<\/p>\n
And where the sky meets
\nthe earth, I saw her standing
\nin the sun, not looking back,
\nnot waiting for tomorrow,
\nshe had arrived. She holds
\nout her arms forever.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
