- stupid fingers -

By BA QueenPublished 7 years ago 1 min read

Sat here listening,

it's some band I know you liked.

A friend on the phone,

pop into my head.

All of a sudden,

all of a sudden.

I found myself,

typing your name, brushing your face.

A familiar feeling,

skin through glass screens.

I can see your stupid fingers,

your silly smile.

Think about the feeling of them,

next to me.

All of a sudden,

all of a sudden.

Remember what it feels like,

comfort you can bring.

Home no longer a place,

a person.

Kick me out,

close the tabs.

Never search anymore,

were you there at all?

All of a sudden,

all of a sudden.

Rip me into pieces,

leave dead skin on the floor.

All of a sudden,

all of a sudden.

There we are,

fragmented and poor.
