check-in
 

is it a feeling?
is it a dream?
how come
it doesn't
at all
make sense
to me,
I hardly
understand
a word you say
through all
our laughter
and relief
buried with
my head
between your ears

I hear you
whisper faintly
move to
an upright
position
please
this is
your captain
speaking
on the
rollercoaster
flight from
heart
to soul,
have your boarding-passes
ready,
there is
no life-vest
under your seat
tonight
I declare
this love
open
