we are back
to back you
sink in to
sleep

I am lying as still as I can trying to still my sleeplessness
I feel the breathing wall of you that’s why I married you I say

to die with
completely
contradictory
as always
as always
to live with
you say
though I thought you were asleep

I am the wind you are
the grass blown back the grass I am
the grass you are the wind blown back the wind
