three small breaths about love

1.

a book in bed
and the way you read it
a put-on voice
to make me laugh
like so many things
you do for that reason

2.

the mountains at night
and i rested on your shoulder
staring through the windshield
just dark shapes in the sky
and the needlessness
of saying words out loud

3.

a photograph of you and i
you're facing away
and i'm reaching out
and little did i know
you were gathering the nerve
to ask what you asked next
