Life in a Box

...it's better than no life at all.

Oh it’s been…

far too long since i had you under my skin

and drank up the days

feeling sunlight on toes and fingers we didn’t even know we had

far too long since i had you on blankets 

with jesus blood and flesh

paired with cream brie and wild porchinis

feeling sunlight on breasts and elbows we didn’t even know we had

far too long since our smiles were as one

but not so long as to forget 

feeling sunlight on crinkled noses and parted lips again
