Your eyes show you care but your actions are withdrawn from the room we share
Like her hallowed state of existence has scarred you to stone
A weeping angel playing hide and seek with me
Angrily touching me back to your past to be compared to her
To become her
Find all the ways I am her so you can justify your need to flee
I am a woman worth committing to
You are a man who fears commitment
Together we are foolish laughter upon pillows
Worrisome over thinking upon the silence
Beauty unwrapping itself around my fingers
Passing through this pen onto paper to avoid writing on your heart
A poet becoming less poetic
A distance becoming less apart
Separate we are our own issues
Pasts ravelling into futures to be knitted into warmth
Together we are laughter unfolding
Apart we are smiles awaiting laughter
In my bed we are light hearted lovers
