‘I am attached to you’,
you proclaim as though
this has always been
your desired destination.
Your limbs drape around
mine, still sweating, as I
steady my body, hoping
to hide my quiver, while
I plan what feels like
an impossible escape
from my mundane, yet
fated future.

Dear U,
This write reminds me of all the times I would be in a situation where I wanted nothing more than to be anywhere but where I was with whoever I was with out of desperation. It wasn’t a lot of times but more than I’d care to admit.
That hemmed in feeling…ugh. You’ve put a beautiful poetic spin on it but the angst sure does come through. Terrific write. H🌷
