You create
a different me
with every smile, every
minute of closeness…
Laughter fills corners of the room
places where
light creeps slowly, where
time overlooks
brief sunlight coming
through
dismissive windows
Smiles threaten the
peace, the
calm of living alone
Routines of complexity driven
out; efficiency
and time settle differences
settle down to
exquisite chaos…
and the new
me.
