Just To Say Hi

The smell of sweat in her Husband's office hovers. Heavy loneliness making me Itch. You love her, but not like you Did with mom. A loop of metal looked Heavier in person. I can hear your breathing In the next room. You told you just wanted To say hi. You closed the door A quiet thud. Shadows of his work Dancing on the walls with Cars driving by Outside. Betrayal like a salty residue Sinking into my skin. So thick I can taste it. I didn't expect this kind of Desert. Why did you bring me here?
