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...
