Calm in love
My neck will wake up with a crick in ituntil it finds your chest to lie on
My ears will deem everything noise
until they hear the beat of your heart
My lashes will close over eyes
that have endured oceans to get to you
My jaws will unclench
no longer needing teeth to grit
My lips will be whispering your name
as if they’d known all along
And my skin will grow goosebumps
the braille of which
only your fingers could read
Oh but what of my heart
and it’s long-lost fragility?
It will grow roots
to keep your palm pressed against it.
