believing as being
-
faith in filling a cavernous heart
once carved out deep, in a brass-hard way
beauty found in faith, floating,
to still believe, hole in heart,
in the potential of empty space.
-
faith in refilling a cavernous heart
past brim, overflowing, dripping on
my hands, your chest, strangers’ feet:
love.
to hide in your lips, beneath your tongue
where bleeding is letting go, white and pure.
-
until then, to wait.
sit,
lay,
live.
compound the days, sum of all white
little x’s on the black and then
just love,
and we.
-
for now,
breathing,
treading,
climbing,
belief;
faith in refilling a cavernous heart
is enough.
