the slightest action.
arm around waist.
don't worry, you.
i'll be there.
confused life.
things on a table.
but in what order?
you or me...
strange acknowledgment.
bittersweet fact.
hand in hand
it could have been.
but time is thin.
what a waste
what a waste.
to notice something
so possible, in fact.
what a waste
to put it back
on the shelf.
