I wanted to write you a letter before

you go

but all I could think about was

poetry

and lullabies

and how you splash on my tongue

in raindrops

usually from evening

to sunrise

we nosedive

into each other's

chests

we hide

in spaces be-

tween

all the spaces

that should keep us

from other people

but not me

I fit quietly

in the crevices

especially

the space between your lips

the space between your teeth

the space between your

where am I supposed to go

now that you already found a way inside me


Is this what it feels like to be the moon?


I think so too.
