As we kissed I sensed the change
as we fucked I could feel
that fire dying, brutally sobering…
The next time you called me
I lay motionless, foetal by the phone
already sharpening my excuses…
As we watched that film, I knew
this would be the last we shared
listening for some good dialogue to use…
As you slept so silently that night
I lay awake, forging a letter
to get me out of these games…
[2006]
Thanks for reading this very early/old poem.

Ah thank you for that! ππΌ I thought I’d post some really old ones. They’re all kind of flawed and faulty but it’s fun to drag them out and dust them off.
