You Will Break

You are never mine
while I've been owned
Belonged
To you the moment you lay me down on the floor,
Showed me the tired map of your travels
talked of rivers, waterfalls and ice
and let your finger trail down my skin like rain

You cannot be contained
Larger than your skin can hold you in
while I can only be one, can come undone
in your arms
You adore me, but I know
More than light, God and mathematics
You will break me

I long for you gone
I long for you
Staring at the ceiling you talked
Of the open waters at night
Of your perfect solitude and space
Never hungry or discontent
while I watched the scar on your throat
expand whenever you laughed
My heart is elastic but I'm not sure
how I'll make my way back without it

You will never be mine
And I belong
