We tweet our love, since we cannot scream from rooftops
for fear that people would hear us
and tattle.
But they can't take away your fingers
or the lines of experience on your shoulders
the engine revs
that I hate so much.
Blink at me
Because one eye sees better in the dark.
Set me on your left side
So you can see the folds of my skirt
and the way my fingers
scribble foreign blessings across your knees.
Sometimes wings don't have to fly
When the tree branch is steady and comfortable
Not clipped, just folded
I've never heard a more beautiful plea
than "stay with me."
