Straight from the heart/brain- no edits

Slow-dance around the room like long-lost lovers.
Bury the phantom of regret and falls grinning
towards the next dead-end
after a lifetime spent swerving away
from the same old echoes
of what makes the sky happy,
what makes motion pictures
of what happy looks like
to other people. People who are not us.
I'm not interested in fossilised smiles anymore.
