In this moment
Among the sips
Of my French Martini
And the tapping of a cellphone screen
I am lonely.

I felt a rush
A rush of so much
And I look to fill the holes
Where I would share
And all of these beautiful
People of color
Told me I have accomplished so much
So young
To keep going
Relationship talk
As if I know
I admitted the recent strife
35 years
Even almost 9 months
Is a long time.

In this moment
I take the time to say
I am kind of lonely
And I miss what I wanted you to be
And what you were so good at being
At times
At this moment
I have noticed
I have noticed
And it doesn't matter
No it doesn't
I have sushi
Lots of beautiful sushi
Move on Layne
Just keep moving.
