Liaison

Sadly I’m happy 
I worry 
From you to me 
I shouldn’t have you 
And vice versa 
You sing me songs 
I write to you in cursive 
A reluctant curse of mercury 
My words 
Never purposely hurt you 
Champagne glasses 
A fence of Vinyl   
Our intake of your chardonnay 
Too vastly 
Becoming more comfortable 
With this character 
You typecast me as 
You take me 
You ruin my thoughts 
Who’s right 
Who’s never wrong 
On weathered days we picnic 
We voyage the river home 
It’s obvious 
It doesn’t bother me 
But it does 
You are all that I was 
Seductive 
A game seldom played 
Lovely 
An inspiration 
Not welcome in our days 
You cry 
But I don’t care to focus 
You care 
But I don’t notice 
If I hurt you 
You nurture me 
Even as my touch 
Tortures anything I see 
Shall I go on 
Melodies and violin strings 
Sooth me gone 
I miss you 
Do you miss me 
Tragedians 
We’re beautiful 
Are you with me 
We’re a romance 
Yet no one leaves happily 

"coffee & songs without you"
