for a moment
in our lip-sealed
open-mouthed kiss
our breaths collide
you inspire me with
deep and dangerous
respiration
you breathe out
while I draw you inside
you breathe in
my dewy warm exhalation
we share the air
alive in each other's
lungs
we touch the heart
pulsating on each other’s
tongues
I float into you
taste your swelling breath
a petrel riding waves
on your great blood ocean
