Peered down your gullet
and it was lit up like fairy lights
I was staring into the abyss
you hid from me for 7 years
when I had ambitions
you swallowed them whole
when I had reservations

of your sharp teeth
staring into a void
as large as your faulting smile
on the edge of all our yesterday’s
I was precariously perched
on your lips
and you whispered
give me a kiss
