Stomach tight
Heart fast
Across my mind float patterns past
Vision tunneled
Tongue swollen
Not the reaction I would have chosen
Eyes glazed
Lungs yawning
I know I can’t say what I’m wanting
Jaw locked
Heart brought low
I wish I didn’t have to know
That you can’t hear me
Mind scattered
Ears rushing
Our two meanings refuse to be touching
So I need to walk away
We can try again another day
When you have the space
For me
