broken back

will we ever be tented 
at the base of a river 
jutting into white-capped mountains?
will the air ever be completely still?
where sound can't move. 
we will touch 
not speak. 
we will hold
not listen. 
only then, the sun can hit 
my face without me shrinking 
spiders can crawl over 
my toes without me screaming 
and we can both touch my pit 
without cowering behind 
the guiding forces of hands
who surely know better
