Not Writin a Poem Tonight
I'm not writin a poem tonight
no, the words just won't come.
Count the minutes since we parted ways
even though I know you know
only been a couple days..
No, I'm not writin a poem
my ears so sore from strings
of a mask worn all day
while I worked.
But, just so you know
if I was gonna write
I'd leave out the part about the mask
just write about the wonder
in all moments
we shared.
Wish the words would come
countin those long minutes
'til you're in my arms again
now that would be somethin'.
