innocent walk

we're gray and watercolor
you sleep with arms around a glass jar
full of purple butterflies from our laughs,
and iced tea dates by the pier,
our midnight tango-taps
on the summer porch,
raspberry and cigarette smoke picnics
in the noonday sun
you’re afraid, i can tell
we’re gray and watercolor
sleeping side by side
my eyes spell lullabies
onto your nervous arms
wrapped around the jar
you don’t have to hold on so tight,
i promise i’m not going anywhere (without you)

Do you get what I mean when I say
"we’re gray and watercolor
sleeping side by side?"
