Juniper

Juniper (click to enlarge)

Under a blanket

with holes throughout

nobody sees in

but Juniper looks out

she whispers

come under with me

and together we'll hide

hold me in the darkness

there will be no outside

where people are cruel

and winters are cold

where I don't fit in

and every thing's sold

climb inside

we're two hands in a glove

fingers entwined

because you are my love

Split-apart (a poem under the bed)

My body trembles

at the touch of your hands

moving over me

like Willow strands

My body for you

while a tear runs free

because it's not enough

to keep you with me

Tightness in my chest

an ache in my heart

wherever you go

you're still my split-apart
