The Minutes/Hours/Days In Between
Choke me with this silent distance
I will use the scissors you give me
to turn around
and cut the strings
from my wrist to yours
He held me close to his side
rigid
you hold me at arm's length
Can my heart take this?
This distortion?
Being cages then no leash at all
When all I want is to be close
to you
Full to the brim with worry
Still, I am starving on paper
Confusing angst with love
your past tells me it will call you back
whispering threats of backtracks
in my bad ear
My own story dances in my good ear
Ishmael kicks me while I am down
Please, please, please, please, please
leave me
I cannot take this
