Half's

Emily Maldonado 2003 (Texas)

Free verse
I've heard the stories of lovers who complete each other.
From the moment of the human life cycle
The story doesn't begin until the first passing.
The pages don't flip until the first laugh-
The sparks of the lighter remind me of you and the heat of the yellow warm light across your skin.
Did you know your moon cycle completes mine?
