I left my eyes on the edge of my palms
I wet my wrists
I wet my hips
I wet my voice
And I left my pillow alone in the water

* * *

I want to see my eyelashes lose themselves in the eternity of your pores

* * *

I left the little line that tightens the shaded edge of your lips.
And I left in its crease a sweet red and a few words.
Between my teeth your voice was stunned

* * *

Over me slides without trail
Green and odorless …
Your words.
