by saplingn

Slouched on the bed, legs bent up, The laptop face beaming. I just gaze at the screen. This emotionless laid-back stance makes me think I'm fresh out of a bath, hair wet, How relaxed my body feels still. The heat filled my body like that cup Of jasmine green tea on my bedside. Curls are forming at the bottom of my hair; As they always tend to. I sit here, no thrill. As I was en route home, I had the breeze lashing on my skin, The wind and the spitting rain, Splattering on my coat. It normally creates an illusion of polkadots, And makeup blackens my cheeks. I squint to see, Somehow I prefer this feeling. Exhilaratingly breathless, Uplifted and exhausted. But yet, I am sat here. Glaring into a screen.
