Idle (Free verse) by MacFrantic
I fell asleep one day
Awoke to find you there
Long fingers exploring my face
Brushing flecks of dust away
I caught up tangled words
Tripping over ways to express
My displeasure to you
But in silence remained
Stilted thoughts carving
Valleys in my head
I thought
Wondered as you pulled my shirt
From my body
Replacing it cleanly
Wondered as you removed my pants
And I could not look there
Too soon you left to go
Turning in haste from me
And I could call
I could say to swear
To loving you
But I didn't
So you turned the sign to
Sorry
We're Closed
Words that confuse me still
In front of my frozen eyes
