learning to breathe

sunlight and shadow drip lustlanuage
no need for translation, a mosquito net covers
me puts my breath on hold at your command
... my heart whispers...sounds like no and
drowns to yes and back again to no ... yes...
help me... the bed has become so wide and
i have fallen so small here...exhaling what
is left of me ...
