Held My Breath

I‘m looking at you

And I don’t get it

 

You’re misty

Translucent

Two feet off the floor

 

My fingers

Slide right through you

And I’m watching

Them wriggle

Behind your back

 

“I don’t get it...”

 

“I held my breath

‘Til you looked at me”

You explain

 

And I look away

Embarrassed.

Aww I love this, it's so simple and bitter.
