i like the dark 
 spaces between your ribs.
 
 i can nest within the 
 catacombs of your mind
 burrowing deep into
 your subconscious
 like a memory left 
 to fade. 
 
 i’ll find nooks and crannies
 you never knew
 you had and i’ll 
 fill them full with
 stardust and 
 forget-me-nots—
 they’ll be my
 little secret
 (x will always
 mark the spot.) 
 
 i like the dark 
 spaces between your ribs;
 their shadows caress me to 
 sleep while images of
 sugarplums and 
 dead stars
 dance in my eyes.
