854

sometimes
at midnight
i get so stupid
i think she calls me
but (but but but)
i don’t hear the phone ring

every inch of her
tasted like tea and rain

every inch of her hair
wrapped my fingers in locks

when she rested her head
on the edge of the tub
and
watched me undress
she didn’t say a word

sometimes
at three
i get so stupid
i take a bath
put my face underneath the water
and open and close my eyes
until i think she
looms over me
