You lay still in the morning light
That snuck in through
The cracks of the blinds
Welcomed but uninvited

It kisses you and I follow it’s lead
Slowly caressing down your cheek - I realize
I’ve seen such beauty once before
But only in my dreams

FrankieM May 2020

Empty

Cracked
from last
evening’s
altercation
When you
flung me up
Against the wall
—————————
I present myself to you
As empty and transparent
As the bottom of this bottle

\ Yet you still broke me /

To sleep next to you
Is a dream of it’s own

Sonny and Cher

Broken broken record
Love songs on repeat repeat
I Got You Babe
Unchained Melody
Let It Let It Be Me

Every love song seems to be written about you.

In Disarray

Though the stars are in

            i                                                         a

                                 a                       r                     y

                                                 They still somehow

                                             a
                                             l

                                             d

          For you seemed to have found your way
                     to me at just the perfect time

Drown

I
pored
over every
word dripping
off of your tongue
flowing out of your lips
I pored over every word
filling up my lungs and
s u f f o c a t i n g m e
I pored over your
every word

             so         you       you         me     was          to
               when    said      loved     I        ready

   drown

Padlock

you say
I'm            the
one            who
shut             the
door             but
YOU'RE the one who
locked it? I just didn't
want your key anymore.
There's no room left
in my pockets.
