in a world of tinder, a bit of ember.


last night
i went to bed 
with ember

i was cold and blue
and i needed some warmth

i may be guilty
of holding her a bit too close
a bit too tight

but i guess
it was 
that kind of night

but there was this one thing
about ember
i had forgotten

you could never be too sure
if it was
distance or proximity
that she sought

too close 
would mean suffocation

too much space,
a blaze.
