there’s

a glaze there now

where used to be

eyes bright & alive

& i’m thinking back

was it

something i said

or done?

conversations

light & heavy

depending on

time of day

thinking needing

done

no offence

necessary

taken or needed

where now sits

a glaze

& if it’s me tell me so

if it’s you then ok

either talk it out

or pick up your skirts

& run
