loving you.

loving you
was the feel of cold
metal on your cheeks

nerves danced, and
sweat bathed
the gravel beneath your
chest — loose and grainy —
dig into your heart

it was the feel of
going nowhere
and everywhere at
the same time

when panic is
neighbour to passion
and rage —

loving you
was the feel of
open tracks
against shivering skin

that instant
when the train is crusading
and the alarm has sounded
but you do not move.
