Walking In The Dark

The Marina is 2 miles long
gravel catching my tennies
crinkled paper in the night air

and you make me want to walk
in the dark

You probably didn't mean it
sickness
break-ups
narcissism

cream in the black coffee cup
I got you for
Christmas

but you said it
and I put it on
leggings and a
maroon sweater
close to my skin

there's a place on the 2 mile
dark and deserted
good spot for a...

walk
in the dark

because they wouldn't
because I'm not their type
because you made it clear

I never would be.
