Three nights ago
I spotted the two of you chatting
In motions resembling amplified speed
Away my eyes were taken
Over such a cheerless duration
An unwanted grievance was composed
In that moment
Quite freely I collapsed
A bite of envy monopolizing my bones
As throughout this war of longing
You escape with innocence
Ignorance made love
To the space between us
Adjusted to the scenery
There I stood---
Staring---
Just staring...

This feels like an observational piece so it's interesting that this is in the miscellaneous category. The language in this is really rather beautiful. I really like this as a whole. "ignorance made love to the space between us" is a personal highlight.
Thank you for the read.
