describing the indescribable

tracing the spine, basements, corners & cracks of my heart,

you'll discover bruised sidewalks,

skyscraper memories,

hallways that lead to my summer skin,

winter's breath; freezing to the touch & warm to the taste

and a lost & found love.

i am....
light on my toes because he sweeps me off of my feet, 

a weightless heart, because i'm not the one in possession of it, 

a full mind, because he's never too far away from my thoughts, 

and... shining eyes, because his love hides right behind them

i wish i could lock this love, freeze it in a steel cage,

because my truest fear is its escape.
