Let's pretend

All I can do is Sit And Stare At the shapes your mouth is forming. The O’s and the A’s knitted into words Your lips tremble But  your words still find me Hide and seek with my hands Its too much Its too wrong Its not true I’m not going to let it be. Crying Is an option But you need me Role reversal I watch you cry Awkward pat across the seats Why tell me here? Cars have no hiding places. We stare blindly in the direction of the windscreen I pretend it’s a television Count the trees, count the sheep Distraction from you I want my bliss back
