I never realize what
Hands feel like when
They touch under
Someone else’s neck
Unless I begin to question
Who they are,
What they’re about,

Its as if they just sit
There with eyes wide
But little to fill inside
As if they sit there
With a comic pause

As they cross
Their legs waiting
To see if I wince
Or merely turn the
Other way so another

Day can raise its eyes
At the way I sit with
Eyes half still
And a spine that
Lines itself to a stare
That chases around me,
But never through me.

The loneliest dinner,
The lonely black hair,
A night I saw dispair.

A night I saw dispair.

I feel the cold touch here. Very intense write that touches the heart.

Love,

I have to say it again that you wrote beautiful poems. Love the read.

"Its as if they just sit

watching this did make one to wish the night should be over soon.
