I feel like I learned last night
what it was like to be blind
to have your other senses heightened
by the dark.
The last thing I saw was you
moving toward me
cat like
and when we met in the middle
i closed my eyes
knowing that your night vision
was no match for mine.
And even though my eyes
were looking only at my eyelids
and occasionally in to yours
While the strong muscles of your
back moved
underneath my tiny pale hands
I can still see the smooth caramel
skin
contrasting with my ghostly complexion
pulling out the freckles in my arms
like a blue shirt
brings out the color in my eyes.
