the weight of the earth
rubs    up
against my ankles; i
stand,

 

and
sway,

 

but the words
don't
come.

 

and
when my gaze    swirls
up
to the horizon, i
do yet not see your
feet, or hear    your
song

 

but i know now that when
you loom up before me, and your voice
goes soft and sends me
spinning

 

my fluttering heart will
fall    into

 

your two cupped hands.
