Poem 6 

You catch me 
as I fall into your arms
You lay me down 
and lift my shirt

my breathing slows down 
my eyes close 
You kiss my cheek, 
my neck, and my chest 
continuously making a trail 
all the way down to my pants

You come back up 
and hope that my eyes open
My seizure has not subsided 
So now you start to pray

You take my hands 
and you give them one last kiss
Now you close your eyes too 
And ask God if we can be together
