Remember when you wanted me in your bed?
Now you rush off for your morning coffee instead..

Remember when a hug and kiss was never enough?
Now our room is inactive and our hearts feel scuffed..

..I miss you..

Do you miss me?

The exchange of smiles
The greeting nodded
We return to our papers
No words needed

To all the girls
And all the boys
And all those in between

Who bleed the colors
Of all the lights
That no one’s ever seen.

Stealthy Predator
Waits to pounce when
I am eating grass
Small dagger chops into my heart

He left home
Should be on that yellow bus
That turns the corner
And makes me cry
When I'm off my guard.

Of course
I'll say
I'm happy
For you.
