this is a message to you, pixie.
because i need to know that you can hear me.
your lying in my arms. your always lying in my arms because the very air that surrounds you, that rests against your skin like a small net of pressure, of warmth, is me. i am that air. that you see escaping from your lips on a cold day, stirring up the settled presence around you. close your eyes now, slowly. i am that darkness. the creeping, settling sensation of pitch black as your eyelids close to the light. when the colours fade just for a little while, and your lost in the bliss of nothingness. warm, and safe, and dreaming. i am that dream, too. that gentle thought that encloses on your mind while your body is still like i asked it to be, the rush of experience and brilliance that you only get to experience that one night. by tomorrow, that experience of me will be gone. as i told you, press your hand to your heart, and feel the beats it pulsates through your body flow like electricity into your fingertips. i am that electricity. i flow from the pulsating shape of your heart through whatever objects stand in my way, to find myself slipping gently into your fingertips. press your fingers to your lips, gently now. hold them still, and safe there. that's our kiss. i am that kiss. i brush against the resting shape of your tinted lips through the form of electricity pulled straight from the core of your body, straight from the heart of love. while the gentle pressure of my electric kiss is against you, you are safe. listen now. can you hear it? there's a wind you can just make out against this backdrop, and its colliding softly with the static in the air to find its way into your ears. whispering like secrets. i am that wind. hushing, and cooing, and soothing you, till your body is too heavy to notice anything else. take a deep breath now, my love. i am that breath. i fill your lungs with the oxygen you need to go on, and i burn them with the rush of carbon dioxide as you exhale. i am that tingling warmth that carrasses its way over the parting of your lips and off into the air, like a balloon carrying a message. i wonder who will be next to breathe that breath. relax now, for i am you. every single second, of every single day.
