This Body and Me

outside

streetlights wink up at my window, flickering red,

green, against the curtains. I used to pretend

the city was a Christmas tree

when I was little

never realizing the bright glare killed the stars.

In this light, we’re so perfect together—

you’re never awake when I’m beautiful.

you lay so quiet against me

you never move in your sleep—your peace

is hypnotic, your heart

sings my body to sleep
