Final last words

Charles Michael Craven

her first words
after our first time
was,
“don’t fall in love with me.”

over three months later
and she’s yet to leave my bed
for over 72 hours at a time.

oh, how the mighty have fallen.

love is a tricky mistress (her phrase)
and so is she.

yet, her first words
after our first time
ring in the back of my head
like a broken school bell
because if I listen,
both of us will miss out
on something
that could be special.
