Bisou Bisou
a packed bag
(or semi packed, if we consider the perfumes on the desk)
going to sleep in a different room—
going to sleep in a different country—
my eyelids won’t close, yet.
buzzing sounds through my thumbs.
the cat won’t understand, there is static in his brain.
I understand, though.
I will never see her again.
