Warm skin
and the promise
of the end
and the beginning
the day
I first felt
my soul
within me.
I leaned over
and plunged
head first
into the abyss
falling
falling
falling
and still
I'm falling.
Ink a breath away
from spilling
and threatening to
never cease
hungry eyes
that betray me
and say more
that my lips could
ever express.
