Embrace

Hold me like you get me
Make my neck my back feel understood
Against your chest
Fit your chin in the crook of my shoulder
Let me feel
There is nothing I could say
You don't already know
Before it falls through my teeth
But let me say it anyway
I need to be gotten
Like breath from the same secret
Sticky my palms to yours
Mushy my cheek to your cheek
Pastey my feet to your heels
Twisty us together
Til we are rung dry
As a cotton towel
Hung out on summer day
Then I will know
How right this is
