I wear his name on my
sleeve, etched beside
the pulsing flesh.
It has a ruby outline
which reminds me
of a new romance;
the gentle scent
reminds me of living,
and each breath gushes
a warm glow
beneath the ribboning
of every letter.
I wear his name beneath
my sleeve and within
every fluttering beat.
In a list
Please tell me what you think

Very pretty. I love the first stanza best.
