I love when you go away then I get to clean up the mess you made stare through the streaks in the glass all day here with the boredom I’ve begged for begged for
I’m happy you get to play I’m glad that I get to stay here with my fantasies they might be small but ok don’t want a thing but to finish my coffee
I love when you go away my patience returns like a long-lost friend the furies they fly out the window their sovereignty at its end
I need you to go away for a minute for an hour for a blessed day pack up your mirror take that ugly woman away
do I feel guilty? not really I watch your breath rise and fall in your sleep at night each morning
I’m reeling from any kiss, any touch, any smile, any kindnesses you are willing to bestow
I love to take a walk unencumbered I love to read and read and read and read anything in front of my face except you
do I feel guilty? not really I watch your breath rise and fall in your sleep each night each morning I’m reeling from any smile, any touch, any kiss any kindnesses you are willing to bestow
polysyllabic words that you say I say them back we talk all the time time flies it stops it goes in a circle I look at my watch through each story time some stories I love I revel in rhyme they fall off my lips they drip down like wine I’m drinking you in
