i slept and i woke

i slept and then awoke

to what was different

new

i slept then awoke to

streams of liquid dreaming

flowing true

mingling

skin we’re in

the convergence

of grit

the emergence

of twisted limbs

covered in different coloured skins

stretched taught

stretched thin

bones

go in

come out

through

layers of

me

layers of you

smoke

drifting

inhaling

out then in

out then in

rips through

pink lungs

so tender

or bruised

black

then tarred

or scared

but can heal

beyond

smoke drifts in

to my skull

in then out

through within

spirit

flowing

up then down

movement

grinding around

molecules

bursting

beaming

out through

swirling

skulls and skin

flesh covered

grit

healed

pink and delicate

behind splintered ribs

beating

beating

beating

stars

into rhythm

beating

stars

into being

then you reached through

reached out

and you held me in

for the first time

and you held me

like it was supposed to be

cradled in your womb

before it was

black and bruised

the light beamed through

you reached in

and pulled me out

me down

to take me up

with you

with you

with you

i can not lose
