I FELL IN LOVE WITH
AN ARRANGEMENT OF LETTERS INSTEAD OF ATOMS
AND I ADORE YOUR PIXELS MORE THAN ANYTHING TANGIBLE THAT IVE
EVER KNOWN
YET I WISH THAT INSTEAD OF TEARING OPEN MY VEINS
TO OBTAIN THE PARTS OF YOU THAT KEEP ME ALIVE,
THAT YOU COULD REVEAL YOUR PRESENCE IN
MY BLOODSTREAM THROUGH BRUISES STAINED
ACROSS MY NECK RESEMBLING ROUGH FRAGMENTS
OF BLEEDING STARS
EVERY TIME I REACH ACROSS MY BEDSHEETS
FOR MY CELL PHONE I PRETEND THAT I AM
GRASPING FOR YOUR HAND
AND I WOULD RATER COMPOSE RHYTHMS
WITH MY FINGERTIPS ACROSS YOUR BACK
RATHER THAN COMBINATIONS OF EDGED
LETTERS ON MY KEYBOARD
THE VIBRATIONS OF A NEW MESSAGE COULDNT
EVEN COMPARE TO THE POUNDING OF YOUR PULSE
I LOVE YOU AND I DONT CARE THAT I AM SHOUTING
INTO A PROCESSOR THAT CONVERTS MY ADORATION
TO PIXELS AND INTO THE OBLIVION
I AM UNCERTIAN WHERE THESE LETTERS END UP
BUT I HOPE THAT THEY EVENTUALLY FIND THEIR WAY
INTO THE MARGINS OF YOUR RIBCAGE AND
I LOVE YOU.
