"In one of the many places you're not, I am"

Your head seems to fit like a puzzle on top of my right shoulder
You gently place it there
hoping to become the two headed creature we always dreamed to be.
The crickets chirp acknowledging another failed attempt
mist like the bottom of the Igauza Falls
Casually collecting in the corners of your almond pearls
and then softly rolling down your face
These tears carry the weight of a mountain range,
absorbing all light as they leap from your body to mine.
They are tears of love.
Your love glides down my hands like honey.
Oozing into each mysteriously formed crack
and dripping off my finger tips
Into the bottomless abyss we created one night we decided it was safe to listen to music on your couch.
Gripping each other tightly
-tomorrow is another day.
