White, red, black

Sleepless, my uterus beating in my chest 
my heart deep in my lower belly
bleeding out homegrown roses

I’m losing it and you hold me
with presence from a distance
tenderly you write me we’re here
and there is a camera for our kiss.

Petals everywhere in countless shades of red.
do I now have to watch them lose color
while it’s still burning on my lips? Live, 

to eat and feed me 
like you do with the music of your fingertips
whatever it is you see, you mention it
the deepest is-ness, our here-dom come
the next om my love let’s dive in to melt forever.
