you fill
everything
slowly,
the way water fills the cracks
of sidewalk in my front yard
after an unexpected April snow
the way perfume fills the air
and wraps itself around pillowcases
in an empty bed
swiftly,
as beauty fills the spaces between us
and longing eyes fill with the glisten of delight
and fear and
love
you fill me
like a cat claws
with soft paws
and playful round eyes
as you bite your lip
and I flush
with the rush
of
the way
you fill
everything
