THERAPY SESSION

twenty-two » s i d e

in the crook of my neck
you breathed hotly
against my shivering skin
your hands wandering down my back

i felt a tear brim in your eyes
i didn't see it
but senses do work
i felt my breath beginning to rise

heart beating so fast
suppressing
you're more important
i'm happy, at last

close to me
you lay on the grass
i know not everything is alright
but it will be

as long as you're by my side.
