a wish

Published on 24 November 2024 at 20:51

"so pick me. choose me. love me. I'll be at Joes tonight, so if you do decide to sign the papers, meet me there." 

 

Flipping my bed sheets around

the room feels brand new

The black fig scented candle 

blown out with a wish.

I can’t tell you what it is-or else it won’t come true. 

 

                                                to love and to be loved

quietly, steadily, constantly.

one last night, 

one last time-

you tonight with me.

tomorrow, 

a memory. 

always on the horizon, 

just a little ways out of reach.

Through curtains drawn i can see

The seasons 

come and go.

And know,

whether bundled up 

Or breathing out,

I'll shiver my way home or

Run sunburnt 

back to your house.
