Stay—
meet me twice,
then again and again,
as often as I arrive.
Meet me at midnight:
espressos, epiphanies
long borrowed, overdue.
Then meet me again
in slanted light.
Undone.
Meet me inside my metaphors—
strip them bare, spend them reckless.
Meet me still, shoulder to shoulder,
where words slip our shape.
Meet me as monsoon—
all poetics and blueprints.
Meet me as the slow drip:
forty-seven days
to half a cup.
Meet me until the numbers blur,
until you see quadruple—
Then stay.
Meet me once more.
