2 a.m

Those words on your lips

That don't mean a thing

They burn a hole

In the air when you

Say them to me

I know I'm hopeless

I know I'm going nowhere

But please stay a little while

I promise I won't be long

Author's Note

Nice!
I know those moments and I know 2 a.m. relatable read. Kinda like, oh well, let me enjoy you while you are here, even if it means jackshit.
Nice job. I like your poetry!

This is beautifully vivid. The first three lines are phenomenal!! and I love the ring of truth you bring with the contrast of the words meaning nothing and implying that they say you're hopeless and going no where, and yet you need them to stay with you.

'they burn a hole in the air ...' wow, that's very good imagery right there. It's so vivid too, the actual truth behind this phenomenon of lies. I like the innocence and Kristin, yet another good night time write!

O, if unsaid words rest behind the lisp of a significant other, I'd gladly take the breath of secrecy. Well done!

It's all golden but that last line... that's perplex-x-x-x-x-ing ... my head, spinning like a compass, wondering about the nuance of you. Nicely done!
