something about it was strange
the way you looked at me
so pensive. perplexed. curious. concerned.
hurt.
is something wrong?
as you drew back, away from me
the shifting weight of your body on top of mine, hot and damp with your sweat
i don't know
you smiled and something in your smile revealed a side of you i have never seen before
let me take care of you
is what you said as you slid your finger inside of me
it felt sharp and painful
why do i feel so far away from you right now?
is what i asked myself and i crossed my arms over my ******* and it confused you, hurt you
i want you
i tried to kiss you but my thoughts were racing
i am so tired
the flickering glow of the candle above your bed gave me solace
i turned my face up towards its light
it was so dark in your bedroom but your face was glowing, smiling at me
i am so sorry, baby
i wish i could tell you why
