umbrella

1.
my day off.

daylight in the city.

alone.

step in step
with
motivation.

standing
among giants.

my mind
swirls.
stare at feet
for balance.

2.
pitter patter.

rain.

umbrella.
stoplight.
traffic.

4.
umbrella.
chinese food.

5.
umbrella.
loft.

6.
the
lover
walks to the
bathroom
alone,
on the tile floor,
with bare
feet.

8.
pitter patter.
shower water.

rinse away
your smell,
your touch,
not the memory.

9.
the shower water stops.
drippity drop.

3.
umbrella,
i forgot my umbrella.
"would you walk with me"
