Whisper and Break

whisper, my love
heat your breath inside
your lungs, and hiss
a sweet song down
my spine

break, my love
crack a snap of sinew
where your fingertips
have singed my skin
and make me whole

what are you, my love
but a whisper and break
the wind in my ears, and
a thin battered bone
in my breast
