Words

Staring out at the rain from the bus stop we so seldom stand

thinking about the corners I am lucky to have you turn with me

Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, more like miseducation of love

miseducation of connection

until now

You’ve educated me in the verses of closeness

and beauty

and words

and these are my words to you

as amateur as they may sound

words from my lips to your ears

words I say in your voice so I understand them more clearly

words
