Small

Bleach smelling corridor
And the deaf whisper
Of sugar falling
Into my coffee cup

Malicious white spot
Trough monochrome film
Unwanted reminder
Of a border too close

I need fresh air
Or just a time out
Smoke draws translucent
Well-known skulls

You smile at me
And talk about love
And how you feel ready
And how you feel small

The planet’s spinning
Hectic and blind
I can take your hand
But I cannot stop it

Compassionate smile
Forever I’m lost
While my mind bends
To letting you go.
