“I miss you already.”
I can’t keep my fingers from typing the words
as my emotions soar and
my heart dropped after you walked out the door.
I grab clean sheets for the unmade bed
waiting for me and stop when I hear the roar of a bike engine.
Peaking out of the second floor window I can only see your tail light;
A small red glow against the thick black of the night.
My heart drops a little as it disappears and I sigh;
I wish I would’ve gotten on the back of
that bike with you but I work in the morning,
And I will see you tomorrow evening.
You promised me that you would be gentle with my soul,
And I really hope you keep that promise because right now;
I have never been more vulnerable and that-
That scares the hell out of me.
