I am asking
love comes from years
of breathing
skin to skin
tangled in each other’s dreams
until each night
weaves another thread
in the same web
of blood and sleep

under a sky smeared with volcanic dust
at the bottom lies a sea
clear and pale as the skin
beneath our arms

It is also a supermoon, meaning the moon will be slightly closer to Earth and appear brighter.
