about wanting to talk to someone very much
Breath held,
I hold myself still.
In my mind I am soaring.
Falling-happy,
Flutter-hearted.

My empty flat
swallows sound and time.
I am absent.
Dream-trapped,
last-weekend-lost.

I am not alone.
I have the words that I would say to her,
if she were here.
All my words, my ever-words or never-words,
breath held.
