He used to recite his poetry
to her on the days his voice felt like honey
because he thought it would make his words sound sweet,
and become worthy of her time.


She would collect them in the hollow of her ear,
and save them for the days when she made her mother breakfast.
Always watching them be spread over a piece of toast,
amazed at how easily a run-on sentence could be swallowed whole.
I know this sucks, but I'm having writers block, so I typed this out to annoy myself.
