Breathing together

The sweetest words I invented
were for daddy, they beat in my heart
and now they are for you

I thought I was an adult
as people can be
but I am so just now

that my brain is converted
(really, it does know that)
with new breasts and arms

which in future will be clumsily
empty awaiting you
when you are elsewhere

I am happy
if you are, we breathe
together forever
