Accident

An accident
Is not learning her scent
Or tracing shapes underneath her eyes
With your manipulation
It isn't guiding her hands
To places I own
Or laughter in the dark
While the moon casts pain
Onto my wandering mind
An accident
Isn't sharing seconds
Minutes
Hours
Entitled to my smile
And dropped with a promise
Into my palm
That I felt slip
Between my fingers
So quickly
And shatter like glass
Beneath my feet
