in the morning calm

there's a hole in your sheet

large enough for my arm to slip in

to tuck away under the cotton

above the swollen mattress

 

the crook of your arm has been fashioned

perfectly to the curve of my cheek

you pull me into you and rest your hand

so gently, on the small of my back

 

you smell of *** and confidence

the lamplight glistens on your skin

my fingers lightly run through your hair

i kiss your shoulder, arm and chest

 

within mere moments

you will say goodbye

and i will drive home

screaming
