You keep secrets,
as some keep bees-
with a padded suit,
so dangerously.
You put honey
on my cracked jaw;
You spread butter,
on all my flaws.
We have a new little life,
on the top floor.
we watch commuters
watch their watches,
we watch the sun
bow it's head into
the east river-
we wonder what
took us so god damned long.
Love reaches the ceilings higher,
Love sinks the walls in,
Love heats every corner,
Love stacks every brick,
Love is slowly closing in.
