Illicit
by Joanne Marisa Leow
I've been struck by lightning
Last night
a dream
so delicate
it left her heart aching
was it you?
her back towards him
"is this too close?"
"how close is too close?"
he says
"There is no such thing"
Your warmth
The calm of you
your breath
on my neck
such unknown
tenderness
For you cannot belong to me
To me you cannot belong.
