she was a
free bird
with a broken
wing
waiting for
someone
with a fix
but even she knew
she wouldn’t
let just
someone
fix it.

you
don’t need to
lay down
a map
and show me
with your
manicured finger
who
you are.
i can tell
from your
eyes.
keep on
your old
shoes
and
vintage looks
and
buy new
books.
the sun
was
busy making the
moon
so i
decided
to go under
my sheets
and
break into
stardust.
stop talking.
just show
me your
eyes
and
let me
read.
stay you.
it looks
amazing
on
you.
i am only
a human
it’s the
poetry
that saves
lives.
we lie
each day
in the face of
love
just to walk away
and love
again.
didn’t they
tell you
dear?
we aren’t
staying.
let’s go.
the fresh smell
of a newly
laid mattress
on a perfectly assembled
bed frame roams
in the air
filling the room
with the virtuosity
of what only money
can buy.
a single glimpse
catches the painted
reflection of a newly
furnished life.
there’s nothing wrong
with that glimpse.
it’s all you’ve
always wanted to be.
silence.
utter silence.
and then you hear
a water drop traveling
down, reaching for
the sink,
to be in touch
with something it
belongs to.
or maybe your heart
wants it to be
that way.
this is what
loneliness
looks like.
