When Was the Last Time?

Folded in a chair
in the corner of a cafe
face covering hair,
Lot's of thoughts,
not sure what to say.

When was the last time
he reached for your hand?
When was the last time
he shared with you his plans?
When was the last time
he held you in a tight embrace?
When was the last time
he ran his fingertips across your face?


Book is still held up
but no longer reading;
thoughts of last times
they keep
impeding.

When was the last time
you both said goodnight?
When was the last time
there wasn't a fight?
When was the last time
you slept in the same bed?
When was the last time
he understood what you said?


Agitated and a little sad;
thoughts of things
that are missing
making you mad.

When was the last time
you said, "I want to go"?
When was the last time
he told you, "hell no"?
When was the last time
you screamed in pleasure?
When was the last time
you felt like a treasure?


Gazing out the window,
past the setting sun
not sure if this is an
ending
or if it's just
begun.

When was the last time
your lips joined together?
When was the last time
he said, "I'll love you forever"?
When was the last time
a single tear drop fell?
When was the last time
your eyes began to well?


Shutting the book and
standing up fast
ignited with a mission
no more dwelling,
action at last.

When was the last time
you felt touch that was warm?
When was the last time
you felt cupid swarm?
When was the last time
you said, "this is the last time?"
When was the last time?
