to distance. i found myself
far too practiced at
removing
intimacy; a determined body
that moved at my bidding,
created shallow
vulnerabilities
words would reveal while
really only hinting at pain.
or fear. we can walk alone
inside the shell of our
lack,
trust only the rhythms
we can control ourselves
and hide from every desire,
hope an intrusion piercing
the skin. bounded by this
decision i found myself in
a valley, i found myself
walking
in circles, i found myself
wandering too close to you,
lost in wonder as you close
the
distance between us.
