turbulence clears

it shakes

the wind breaks
beneath my feet

a lump
a weight
flashes forward

i see your face
feel you

planted firm

strong
safe
place

me in yours
keep me real

our lines
do and you
bring me back

turbulence
clears

lungs half full

words
take

give
silence

golden everytime
i give

smoldering

he was
smitten

the bite to my hand

hurt
burned
straight
through flesh
cast in bone

the smell
the smell

air
lungs
full

i rise
escape
released

be
come

the way you found me
returned

be
came

yours
erased
