Spiraling Valentine

Lefty Lucy and tidy Righty
He breathes out his life to her
And she just breathes it back again
They're screwed into one another
You say with a straight face
To hold something in place
To snatch it out of space
And ever-destructive time
Feeling the ever-loosening bolt
Of loneliness and lust
Accede to loyal friendship
The spiral of days ascending
And descending ladders
Love that lifts us up
And helps us down again
