You wrapped your arms around me and exhaled
and i felt that you had been holding your breath your entire life
you wanted to hold me
but why do you choose increments
over permanence
everything is temporary
but our love was created beyond the fence
far from ordinary
why do you choose to hold me in increments
when you can hold me forever
you torture us both with what could’ve been
what should be
and what I fear I’ll want forever
I have wings without you
I fly high above you and your lies
but you add to my feathers
and within you I lie
