hideaway

we smiled at our familiar
so sure of ourselves
sitting in early summer
face to face around a
wobbly glass-frosted table top
we found comfort in cigarettes
she knew i always had
to have one when with her
i knew she’d join me
and through puffs of wanting
i sat in secret sipping sin
lapping up the lapis in her eyes
they tumbled over and around in
fickle chatter parting syllables
onto my lap
aimlessly burning it
while my legs held onto the air
so sure of ourselves
sitting in early summer
face to face around a
wobbly glass-frosted table top
we found comfort in cigarettes
she knew i always had
to have one when with her
i knew she’d join me
and through puffs of wanting
i sat in secret sipping sin
lapping up the lapis in her eyes
they tumbled over and around in
fickle chatter parting syllables
onto my lap
aimlessly burning it
while my legs held onto the air
