the first love of my life never saw me naked there was always a parent coming home in half an hour always a little brother in the next room always too much body and not enough time for me to show it instead i gave him my shoulder my elbow the bend of my knee i lent him my corners my edges the parts of me i could afford to offer the parts i had long since given up trying to hide he never asked for more he gave me back his eyelashes the back of his neck his palms we held each piece we were given like it was a nectarine that could bruise if we weren t careful we collected them like we were trying to build an orchid and the spaces that he never saw the ones my parents half labeled private parts when i was still small enough to fit all of myself and my worries inside a bathtub i made up for that by handing over all the private parts of me there was no secret i didn t tell him there was no moment i didn t share and we didn t grow up we grew in like ivy wrapping moulding each other into perfect yings and yangs we kissed with mouths open breathing his exhale into my inhale we could have survived underwater or outer space breathing only of the breathe we traded we spelled love g i v e i never wanted to hide my body from him if i could have i would have given it all away with the rest of me i did not know it was possible to save some thing for myself some nights i wake up knowing he is anxious he is across the world in another woman s arms the years have spread us like dandelion seeds sanding down the edges of our jigsaw parts that used to only fit each other he drinks from the pitcher on the night stand checks the digital clock it is 5am he tosses in sheets and tries to settle i wait for him to sleep before tucking myself into elbows and knees reach for things i have long since given up this is a submission thank you so much sarah kay poetry slam poetry spoken word spoken word poetry submission permalink posted 8 years ago tweet this 231 notes stylishgreaser asked
