words by dominic riccitello

i drive by night
holding you fine
your arms in my brace
head in my pain
i held you tight
twined in mine
your hair in my grasp
hands a softness 
i thought i could kiss
you forever
a soft touch
of your bottom lip
i loved you twice
here and there
a dozen past lives
it was kind
heavenly, i thought
i was i
lost in your worldly
finding your depth
living in it
you loved none
i loved it
you
things i thought were bliss
your hands to your hips
handles, i kissed
a body of wonderland
just wondering
where it went
