Noting Angles

Alone in company, skirting silence, take offense to youth and pursed lips

slip out slightly dodging traffic

pull the covers breathe in darkness

light the candle feign exhaustion

scroll to dull exult your heart ache

Show your eyelids, kiss my childhood

grip and twist and pull the bedsheets

pull you closer, want you once more

noting angles, plotting pathways

Trace your jaw line memorize you and cut you loose

I will just go numb and drive away

now I just go numb and drive away
