Understanding
Soft secrets whispered between our lips
Silence, shame, suicide
Chest to chest
Broken heart to broken heart
their rhythms synchronize
The dark wound inside my soul
begins to cauterize
We make love a hundred nights
then lay side-by-side
He asks me to be his wife
But I weep like someone’s died
