emc poetry

I wrote your name

across my hand

to remind myself

it was never a game.

You’re like the moon

and I’m your tides,

pulling me in and out

and I’ll allow it.

You’re like the sun

and I’m the sea

your light shining into my darkest caves.

and I’ll allow it.

I wrote your name

across my chest

like I belonged to you

or something like that

and I’ll allow it.
