My feet haven’t been warm
for a few days
while every moment
my heart threatens to
outgrow my chest
My hands are a little
chapped and cracked
from dryness
while my eyes
water from joy
My ears hurt some
from the cold
and yet the same ears
hear and heard
your pleasure
Nothing in my body
had prepared my heart
for what comes to me
from your feet and hands
and ears and touch
