Tethered

Posted on by Megan R. Buck

Denied by distance

tethered by time

I’d set fire to the night

with ten-thousand lights

if it would lead you here, to I

___________

Dance with me amongst stardust and fireflies

if only to embrace you

sudden clarity

answers that supersede the questions

____________

For the chance

to graze my fingertips across you

every curve, every plane

flesh on flesh

to hear you breathe my name
