Hummingbird Wings

Nibbling on
the branches of
an irritable wet blanket

Struck down
torn apart
but determined

Longing for
the peaceful clutter
where the kisses
show their petals

Opening up
one by one
on the faces of the woman I love

What a beautifully chaotic balance of words.

I'm suspended in mid-air.
