the day after;

my chest still feels invaded

from my heart twitching at it’s helms

inside out

heaving with seeds of warmth;

that don’t stop growing

into lengthy green trees,

running up my throat

straight out my mouth

rendering me without words

funny how floored I have found myself to be

that this could occur

that I could be loved so hard,

strong

and soft, with a flow almost as clearly flawless,

intricate and delightful

as the abdomen of a river.

all at once.

all for free.
