I'm Getting To It

Gone now
that time
you gave me your smile
and again
that time
you gave me your teeth
and that time
I gave you mine

Who I was,
blue, green, red, yellow
your favorite colours,
uttered
consent and comfort

Gone now
the words
I used to snare you
the words
you used to tell me
you are mine
the words
I never said
now wrapped tight
in the dim smoke

You are a favoured star
on a cloudy night
beyond my grasp
and still my guide
now gone
