blather
hubris_born_of_contenment
Death of a Rose a restful bed i lie upon
carefully transposing her thoughts
with mine
resting slowly
intertwining my thoughts, skin,
in her contentement

lifting her smile
just for a moment
in her slumber

a hubris
a contagion
between her and me

struggling against
her nightmares
and mine

but softly i cover her
with my skin
tell her in whispers
to not weep

tell her in my loud voice
with my skin
with my thoughts
with me.
