Write me
Write me with your ink on my body,
and the calligraphy of your lips
Make my back a canvas where your heartbeat dwells,
and let each touch awaken
the echo of the beloved
Write me without words,
without voice, let your hands be the language
and the silence our verse
Let your breath be the spark that ignites the night,
and the fire that marks my flesh,
be memory of your touch
Let my pores become
witness of this writing,
that do not understand forgetting
Write me,
and learn together, in each stroke,
to read it in my body
