Dark in my room

i hate this part

he rolls to his feet

slowly seeking and finding

in the dark his clothes

shoes, that pretty watch, the **** phone

 

he's going home

when he just made a nest

inside of me

when he just laid down

and rested for just a small **** while

 

why not longer, why not daybreak

sun coming up over your toes and into your nose

you warming your hands on my back

loving the feel of my legs brushing up

against your yawning form

 

why not ******

as you move toward the door

keys in hand

don't pull me in to kiss you

stay instead, play awhile longer

 

with me
