Momentary Silences

Go get some sleep.
a relaxed smile to a weary eye

I don't think I'm quite ready to.
yawn breaking through the
broken dam of lips
exchanged internal laughter
Fine. Maybe I should, but I don't want to.

a silent moment of thought
on a night of momentary silences.
Why not? It's been a long day.
Go stretch out and unwind.

I will.
statements unnecessary
There's just never enough time for us.
words like a winter night sky
cold, lonely, empty

Sure there is.
lies only noticed by the liar
We just have to make the time.

Maybe. I guess.
warmth of possibility
It just never seems that way.
I'm going to lay down.

Good night.
I'll be in soon.
a painful reminder that
bullshit is the lubricant of relations
time to follow suit
a flick of the switch
work disappears like light
