Still Together

I'm afraid

If I move in with you

Or you with me

We will break up the next day

We're still together

Because we don't live together

We would have to try extra hard

To make it work

After all these years

It's a chance I'm willing to take

Should you get kicked out of the closet

Should your family kick you out

My bed is here / My hand to hold

My lips to kiss / My knees to pray

A sonnet that's too honest

For dry eyes

A poet who's too in love

To realize

We're still together

Because we don't live together

But if we did

A sonnet too honest for dry eyes.
