Too dense

iaian7 » blog » poetry John Einselen, 3.03.06

far too dense to breath,
too thin to actually hold…
this feeling you leave in here

too opaque to see through,
too transparent to perceive,
the effect you have on me

it’s too dry to drink,
but wafts from room to room…
this air of leavingness

all too impenetrable
but too waifish to believe,
the thoughts that spin

too naive,
too scared,
I’ll hide.

too long to tell,
maybe it’s gone,
but I fear to look out
from my little corner

tonight, I’ll block it out,
tomorrow you’ll be back,
and then we’ll start again
