I Tell Myself

I am ready, waiting for you to come to me. You soothe me at the end of the day while the wine winds its way through me. Is our time now? Is this the love we have sought? These notes float through the air so easily, too beautifully. Yours lips moisten, spread and wait for that moment, that connection, that kiss. "Let the world watch, Let the world wait." you say. So I do, waiting for the world to come around. Hairs raised to attention, your breath on my skin. Like static building, sparking on a doorknob. Let the world watch us, wonder and wait for us.
