At night

It hurts to breathe
beside you
To admit these lungs
crave you
for their sustanence
on those nights when I
lay watching
my future
upon your face
the rise and fall
of your chest
the heat of your
hand
upon my thigh
It hurts
to admit I need
your breath to
give me comfort
your eyes to give
me truth
your arms to find
me peace
