Don't let it love slowly

Rush it into a story

Let it stir into a ghost 

In your head, for you and you 

and you as well. 

Let it knock out your eyelids

let it knock on the door 

Let it scream in your face

as you smile and ask for more. 


Give it time to follow through

It wont sit still,

for you 

or you 

or even you. 


Because it isn't a feeling 

or a second option

Its ethereal 

and hollow 

with broken bones

and vacant eyes

and it listens, yes it waits

for you to make the move . 

To slow dance your way into it again,

To ask for its help

to pick up the pace

as your mouth opens in horror

as 

you run away with 

loss 

and hate 

and an empty suitcase.
