accidentally (i'm sorry)
i involuntarily held your heart,
made from glitter & temporary valentine happiness
in my palms
accidentally letting it
scatter
onto the table
as i bit too hard into my nicotine gum
the sincerity of your eyes
under the dim waffle house lights
stealing.my.breath.
from lungs i was attempting to preserve
as accidentally, our lips grazed one another's
my spine falling into the curve of your arm
each of us aching for something different,
for more than we can say,
but honey, tinkerbell isn't tossing her fairy dust
on our heads anytime tonight

I remember reading this a long time ago, and it's still just as amazing as when I first read it. Good descriptions and wording, everything just sort of fell together in a good way. Short but bittersweet, especially the last line. Great job

Good
This poem is alot differant from what I read but I do like this poem. It is so common for the women and men to have a differance of meaning behind actions. I am married and mistake my wifes actions sometimes. Well this is a nice piece tho.
