harvest moon


there is a bird at my windowsill

pecking at the glass 

and now i am wondering

how you tap on the steel

that i call my heart 


-


there has never been another

who i wished to swap souls with

- as if the very essence of my being 

was as notional as a secret 

but here we are 

whispering to each other

with only the moon as witness

- i have never been so candid

about my open wounds before
