Easy

Tracey Thorn

I watch the way the light
Falls across the street
I watch the way you blink 
Just before you speak
I love the way you breathe
I'll hate the day you'll leave
It's easy to forget
We haven't even started anyway
Sometimes love is a mistake
An easy one to make
And if there's any doubt
You're better off without
I watch as you sit 

Staring at your screen
I think that I could fit 
This places in between
It's easy when we try
We need reminding why
We try, when we try
Do we just intend to try?
And that's broken and sad
Still the only thing we have
And I'll be waiting here
'til someone has a better idea
Something that could make it easy
