january

it was unseasonably warm for a january morning, and

as a result, the front windows of your car were left

cracked open to the lazy morning air

 

and i saw them hanging there

like open mouths poised to spill their secrets

 

i searched for a pen.

 

i thought about writing down all the things i love about you

every time you took my breath away

every fever dream of you and every time i wished i could undress you right then and there

and i was honestly so close.

your windows were open, and i could slip it easily onto your passenger's seat.

 

but no one was parked on the other side of you,

and i would quite certainly give myself away.

so i didn't risk it, and i'll have to be content

with hoping you wanted to undress me, too
