His

His

A Poem by Sarah Jane

Coiled breaths bear upon blank spaces
Held captive by fleeting warmth
I am gaping

Wounded howls split the silence
Carried through shadows of loss
I am intact

Aching hands trace supple maps
Pressed firmly against main arteries
I am patient

Abashed cheeks hover above oblivion
Shifting quickly to present expression
I am tense 

Misshapen teeth hint the difference
Between gnashing and nipping 
I am willing

Deafening whispers filled with echoes
Weigh more heavenly at dusk
I am bemused

Solace wrapped words grope hesitation
Purging shrouded doubt within slick limbs
I am kindled

I am
