Knees

Sparring
With an angel
In a field of flowers
Daffodils smell your poison
And emit a bittersweet fragrance
10% bitter and 90% sweet
But I've always had a weak stomach
And you were the ugly reminder
That my entire world was on its knees
That when you left I was on my knees
Before the entire world

I'm walking through life on them
Through snow and sands
And broken up bits of rock
I'm bleeding for your love
And sweating for your touch

My heart beats slower and slower
And finally stops
At a standstill
Sweet nothings
Like the words you whispered in my ear when I was inside you
And you in me
Literally at a standstill
And now my heart no longer knows the exhausting chore of keeping my body alive
And my brain know longer strains it's ears
To listen for the right time to move this organ that way and that organ this way
Oh, what beautiful silence
That I haven't known
Since you
Were on your knees
For me
