ache

the room is busy
in the dull hum of conversation you can hear
an ice cube hit the bottom of a glass on it's return from
someone's lips
we are close to eachother
but not close enough
your eyes seek mine out to let me know what you want
when you watch me like this
i feel very aware of every detail
the weight of my earings, the air on my collar bones
i picture us coming together in a hotel bed
imagine the strange and yet familiar pressure of you against me
a sip of wine to fill my mouth instead
i bite my lip.
