Not enough

There are as

Many numbered breaths

Sheltering under your lips

As there are

Seashells without songs

Kept in the cupboards 

There are as

Many secrets

Sewn in the seams

Of your jackets

As there are

Chipped vases 

Tucked in corners collecting

Dust

There are as

Many sweet nothings

Stuck in your gums

As there are

Croaking frogs

Trapped in our shower.

There are as many 

Spaces in your heart

As there are atoms

In the whole universe.

Love will not be enough.
