Love Poem: Allowed To Miss

Allowed To Miss

being (having been) drained into a different shape,
purged of files and fluids,
the vampire reflex trips.

there is thirst like a dry river bed.

*

i have evaporated where i was once sweat on your burning skin and then condensed into this fog i have been lost in.

i have threaded perfect minutes through the eyes of several pictures in my mind to keep you in a couple of hours.
