It was my fault

I placed

Myself

Gently

In his arms

In that kingdom

Of male privilege


In his bed between us

There was that

Love

That force

That empty crushing

Presence of

Him


During our rest

Above me

I see the

Asexual angel: him her me


Reflecting our

Yin and yang division

Pervasive

But welcoming

We are wrapped and rooted intricately

Reminding me of 

Forest floors


In his bed between us

There is an angel

With this confrontation

I wonder:

Do you understand

This schism which

Transcends

Cosmic heights

Revealing the illusory mask 

Of our

Contradiction called 

Love?
