CHANGE.
Your body is cold.
Like It's waiting for mine.
It's calling for the warmth of when we lie together.
Have you been missing me?
I lay behind you gently placing my my face against your back.
I am happy; content. I could lie here all day long. I wrap my leg around your hip as if I want to engulf you whole.
Still cold.
This is weird.
I put my ear to your back.
Today is strange. I don't hear the rhythm. I don't hear the bass of the drum.
Still cold.
I don't hear the tune that remains on repeat.
Don't you dare?
How could you?
Still cold.
I hear my serenading rhythm. In this moment it's louder than usual. Actually, It's so loud that It's the only thing I can hear.
Why can't I hear yours?
I'm scared.
Your body is still cold.
