I love him like butterfly wings
    on a bridge to somewhere
              to something

    soft kisses
    crossing
       and nothing
       like a passing star
    soft
succulent

       crossing and falling
between our heads
       like butterfly wings

         I love him like wisps of smoke
              like dreams at night

       tender
          stillness
             peace

         I love him
              like nothing

amazing piece
i particularly like
I love him like wisps of smoke
and then that final
I love him
like nothing


i love it when new life is breathed/kissed into an old idea
and you've done it so well with this poem
thank you
