took a coffee break
my heart starts to palpitate
just like our first kiss

humid, skin to skin
lipstick stained cigarette stub
i wish it’s your lips

snowflakes on my hair
dissipates into thin air
fleeting like our love

oh bella luna
poor is your beloved wolf
loving from afar

i sip water
as you sip
on your beer

your cheeks are rosy
and warm to the touch
my hand is ice cold
you flinch and pull away

your eyes are wide
my lip is cracked
a small bead of blood
forms atop
and slips down
my bottom lip

as you sip
on your beer

your absence
makes me question
my presence

he looked back
on their love

he could not
move forward

he lashed out
and inward

you have cut out your heart,
and offered up your soul.
placing each in my hands,
my grip falters,
as they hit the floor,
and succumb to the cold and dirt.
