I held my breath for you, dear
held it in for so long.
traveled miles to hold you.
wanted to hold you for so long.
the closer i get, the further you stand.
listen for my footsteps, i'm almost there.
the sound of my talkative heart, you go running.
you used to like my voice.
this game of hide and seek, no i dont play very well.
i'm new, someone please explain the rules.
no telephone calls,
no emails,
no surprise visits
...
no letters,
and please..
NO texts.
so i listen to the rules, maybe broke one or two.
but what did i have to lose?
i'll leave now, leave you to your new life
with your plastic friends and your fancy clothes
i swear, when i get to where i'm going, i'll let out the longest breath of air.
feel you evaporate, dear.
i'm finally here.
