After great friends...

After great
Friends

Fuck

A formal feeling comes

The smile sits ceremonious like tombs
The stiff heart questions, what does he think

Of 
Me 
Now?

And on the plane ride home
You bawl
As everyone watches you surreptitiously out of the corners 
Of eyes
And attendants try to smile
And pass you extra pretzels

Oh yeah
Extra pretzels

That helps


After great pain
A formal feeling comes
The stiff heart questions…..

Can it go on

And it does.
