Baby when you go
silent…
I have no idea if we’re
here nor there,
Up nor down,
Or whether you’re moving
All those different directions
With her instead

Have you seen right through me again?
11/8
I wonder if you know
That I’m terrified
Of what you’ll do
To my heart
Once you’re done
Bewitching the rest of me.

Heaven
11/11
I’m back on a plane
Flying 1,400 miles from you
And all I can think
Is that maybe,
When I’m this close to heaven,
You’re not as far away
As it seems.
-Sarah Clinton
Oblivious
11/6
Dear God,
Why do I love you so much?
When did this happen,
And how did it go on so long
Without my ever realizing?
-Sarah Clinton
Submission
10/29/18
On my knees
At your feet,
Eyes low
Til you tip my chin
And allow me to
Gaze up at you
In wonder.
This is simultaneously
The safest,
Most powerful,
Intoxicating and
Vulnerable, yet
Effortlessly natural
Position into which
I have ever settled.
-Sarah Clinton
Ironic
11/3/18
It is ironic that
I helped pick you up,
Returned you to your feet again,
Only for you to walk away
Toward her.
And her.
And her.
-Sarah Clinton
Weak
11/3/18
Jesus Christ, I can’t even
Look at you without my knees
Getting weak.
Even through a photograph,
Your eyes pierce me
To my very core.
-Sarah Clinton
A Thousand Ways
10/29/18
There are a thousand ways
For me to tell you
I love you.
I simply choose those deemed
Least likely
To reopen the
Gaping, jagged wounds
From your past.
-Sarah Clinton
Yours
10/27/18
You may not be mine
But I am Yours
And I don’t know how
Not to be.
-Sarah Clinton
An Unnecessary Admission (You Already Know)
10/21/2018
The power you have to make me
Breathe, gasp, moan, cry, plead your name
At the lightest possible touch of your lips to my skin…
Oh baby, no one else could ever
Boast such a thing
Even when they’d had all of me.
I thought myself invulnerable, impervious
To men’s charm and wit and tricks…
