Inside Of Me
An anniversary poem
Loving you is not a choice
Oh, I know it should be
We choose one another daily
Or so the theory goes
You’ve seeped into my bones
Like calcium, like collagen
The swish swish
Of my rushing blood
You crip walk
Through the living room
“It works
The anterior tibialis”
My God
What a weirdo!
It would take a lobotomy
To unlove you
(Some violence done to who I am)
My cells won’t stop dividing
My lungs won’t quit their work
You’ve become
An autonomic function
Breathe, blink
Beat, digest
Love you,
Nate
Happy 12th Anniversary to my baby!



Congrats, friend!
Happy anniversary. You are a match from many heavens
