i will always remember you

walking out of kingston station

black and white heels

hungry

one day,

when i write to you

‘i love you’

no reply

ill whist away

you will love him with your resentment

lets both play our cards

as i draw solemnly

the joker

as i am

i couldn’t have been

further from your truth

tall pair of jeans seated across from me

filled with legs of a woman

engrossed in her studies

soft fairy

pale angel

Cut me down, just a little more

build me up how you want to see me,

without structure

i am designed to fall

i am just bricks

without mortar

Four o’clock and i havent eaten

anything more than tea and beer

I just want to lay down next to you

and call it sustenance

I had never really written about holding love

merely the loss there of

Today is different

having.

I have such terrible insomnia you know

which just gives me more time

to lay awake next to you

and fall in love
