pulse
friday, may. 18, 2007, 11:52 pm

your fingers around my wrist, fingertips feeling for my pulse, and like some magic flowing through, i think i feel it too,
in my fingers my toes my chest all over in places i never once felt it.
and then there's so much of it, the intensity and the sound, and i'm rocking,
and all that's left that's keeping me from falling are those fingertips still feeling for my pulse.
i should have told you i never once felt it.
