The Sighing Breath

He clicked unlock and the case sprang open
To hell with all of my hoping
As I try to run the dial
But I would die just to see you smile
And you stutter the flame
And I see your name
In my email inbox
And I try to explain all I am not
Are you interested, coz you’re older than me
But you’re equally free
And almost as cool
Which guy were you in school
Somewhere in a foreign land
With heritage
I’m sorry I ghosted
Your Facebook page
But I couldn’t hang on anymore
But I rest my head against the door
Coz I can hear your music play
In between what you say
And I watch the light dance in your eyes
You laugh like there’s no disguise
That could ever hide this from me
I just hope that you see
Everything that we are
He makes a joke, I see a star
