Absurd

"I think,"

you said.

Nothing more.

Or 

at least

that's all I heard.

Absurd,

the notion,

the words

put in motion,

and I can't see

through your haze.

If I bleed,

please look away.

My heart

stops,

starts,

and locks

and my lungs

won't work.

Into the sun,

into the murk,

I had your hand

if you had mine;

don't misunderstand. 

No really, it's fine.
