173/365: a hundred hopeful places

the lighting's changed
you say

it's nine now
not eight

and we're making
love again

like time is only
the changing of skies

like age is only the disguise
we wrap around our souls

like there's no such thing as old
we both look like

children in the night
breaking the stupidest rule of all time

forgetting anyone ever wrote it in the first place
forgetting there was ever a moment

of lovelessness
forgetting the aches we've made our identities around

forgetting the feeling of thinking ourselves unfound
forgetting ourselves to the crown of togetherness

glowing faces
exploding love handles

a hundred hopeful places
to pull each other close
