Comfortable SilenceA Poem by Patrick McCombs
I was reading my book
Snug in my little nook Entranced by the flowing prose I was in my comfy clothes When you came upstairs You sat in the little egg chair You maintained the silence We've developed a reliance On this strange dynamic We probably both need a mechanic After several minutes, I look at you You look like you always do Black hair unbrushed Face a little flushed Your looking out the window The afternoon light setting your face a glow I think you look pretty this way Unassuming in the face of the day Your not trying to be something, you just are And that has gotten you pretty far © 2013 Patrick McCombs |
