Lines and swirls
Circled in confusion
Crossing over
And back in illusion
Their minds entangled
And their bodies twist
They’re now in knots
That form a list
Of beautiful nothings
That scrawl themselves
Black and pretty
Across the shelves
Triangles leapt
From pen to paper
Love was sketched
Ink turned to vapor
“I love you’s” were exchanged
Hugs given
Desperate cries
All lies, forgiven
Hands waved goodbye
Heads nodded in sorrow
Fingers waggled
Air kisses follow
Feet paced away
Reluctant and slow
Regaining speed
They say, “Hello.”
