tomorrow

(never)

if tomorrow starts without me

will you grope your sheets

in your sleep drunk haze

to find me.

will you gather my panties

strewn hastily

on your bedroom floor

and ball them in your fists.

will you fill the kettle

with too much water

and drink your coffee

lukewarm

because it takes too long to boil.

if tomorrow starts without me

will it take a million years

for the sun to set

or will the daylight spill

like honey in your eyes

while i stay forever in the darkness

because my day never starts without you.

if tomorrow starts without me

it starts without you, too.
