You're a prayer
a need
a gimme right now
a sweet tooth
sleep deprivation
a daydream and nightmare
a soul itch
a bite my bottom lip and covet
a what if I can't get to you
a get my shit together so I can
You're a sacrifice
a Simon Says
a looped thought
a heart murmur
a secret creeping from my pores
an ego check
a Freudian slip
a tsk-tsk and an aht-aht
a praise dance
a gallon of patience
an answer within six questions
You are
clasped hands and sore knuckles
a soon
a hope
baited breath
a please and thank you
a rooftop-screeched
AMEN
