you were sprawled across my bed

with my sheets draped across your waist.

the only sound in the room was the sound

of your breathing

and the faint buzz of a helicopter flying

over my apartment.

my index finger danced across your chest

outlining the tattoos that decorated

your skin.

my finger traced the one across your heart,

the letters b.l with a small moon

beside it. the letters stung with each trace

i made and i hoped my mind was doubtful

again, that the two little letters weren’t

meant more than i thought they were.
