airplanes over
Missouri fields
to
wrestling games on the
bedroom floor
a
whirlwind of weeks
in which
I somehow love you
more than before
rearranging the living
room, putting up
with me crying over my
childhood home
laughing at the
sight of you
busting out of the
bathroom door
wet hair
with my robe on
strike a pose
and
leaning over you
hands to either side
of your bare chest
my hair falling
like a thin curtain
I can’t help
falling in love
with you
over and
over
again
