My Heart Is 2,446 Miles Away
2,446 miles
I envy your sheets
how they get to wrap around you
touch your skin in the Lonely Hours
I slip on my liberal arts boots
paint my lips raspberry red
and kiss my coffee mug good morning
I keep my hands busy
my body moving
my mouth rambling
Thinking is a dangerous game
Solitude is my downfall
Writing this broke my heart
silence is unraveling
threads could travel 2,446 miles
tick tock- the thought
of hiding in sheets
fairy-princess-paris-land
poppy wishes into saw dust
too sweet and all consuming
honey bees still sting
It was and will be.
