Brief Run


I woke up
naked, and waiting
for him
to love me again
to insert his comment
in my mid-sentence

naked
I’m still waiting
for his love, to give
but, I think he’ll keep me waiting,
once more

I don’t know what came over me
I got dressed
put my topcoat over me and my briefs
and unshamedly, proudly
walked… and started running

as far as I could
away from him, our bed

away from his love
yet still, to give (away all his secrets)
