I don't

I don't

Open at your words

Your touch

I don't

Listen to

Anyone anymore.

I am completely in my head.

I know we don't have time for this mess.

I do it anyway.

Pay attention.

I can't.

Don't, I tell myself.

Don't be that 

Cold-shouldered                icy stare              lifeless            fake smile

Girl.

Could you instead be

Love            light          laughter          connection?

I could.

But

I don't.

    I would stay in between

    Refusing to stay

    Refusing to go

    If I could sail
