a bird flits in my ribcage
i know that it is you
it sings all day and through the night
i’m not sure what to...do
i love to feel you flutter
you live inside my heart
it’s never hard to tell
if we’re together or apart.
i want to feel your claws (bones)
scratching on my bones (claws)
the divots will remind me
i have never been alone.
and when i get a sickness—
is it true you get one, too?
whenever i am sighing,
does my heart slow?—is your cage blue?
i am writing to you now, dear bird
i dare not make a sound
for your song uninterrupted
is the sweetest thing around.
i hear it in the morning
when the air is dark and dry
my sparrow, things you tell me
make me think i’ll never die.
