close to a love letter

Take me~

Take me into your world
with your edges pressed against me
leaving red imprints in my body
where the blood has rushed unnoticed

Take me away from
the mundane
the everyday
the place of limits
into a place without
the word 'impossible'

Take me away
Take me into
Make me into someone
who notices not the world around her
but only the world in front
before my very eyes
your straight lines and your curves
are the embodiment of love
_{My love}

Bound, sealed, captured
I carry you
pressing into my arms
your weight no figment of my imagination
though parts of you are
so feather-light, so fragile, paper-thin, delicate
I carry you

to completion
to the finish
to the very end
as all things must
so we must

I will remember all I can of you
before I find another
because, love,
life is meant to be lived
and there are worlds to be explored

Do not find me fickle, love
Find me filled with love
for more than one
and when we are finished
another shall find your world
so take them away
as you have taken me away.
