too cold to smoke outside

by Maria Francesca

It's too cold to be outside smoking
but you have to have your fix.
I'm sitting at the computer typing
while you pace on the patio
bare footed and bare chested
and tell me that you played guitar badly today -
which isn't true,
and that I played better than you did -
which also isn't true,
and that you love me -
which you don't say with words
but with your eyes -
and which is true.

What a powerhouse visual. You nail it so well.
