We woke up making love quietly
so that the house would
not be consumed by
the flames slipping
from our bodies and lips
You made me breakfast
I made the bed
You left your cologne at
the bedside table
and I forgot where I kept
the keys to my office
You postponed your meeting
and I called a taxi
As we waited
you finished your last
smoke of the morning
My eyes were brimming
with things I wanted to say
you saw me struggling
and held my hand
When it was time to go
You turned to me with longing
and I gave you a kiss to last
till the evening
