Who Knew Poetry

I'm Amanda. I'm a "struggling actor" based in New York. I like to pretend I am a secret poet. Maybe I am, maybe not. Either way, it's fun.

I Miss Him

———————————————————————

I thought that our fingers, interwoven with time

Would meld with eachother and dance to the band

And our toes, worn and torn, after mountains we’d climbed

Would meet under blankets and slip into sleep

And what about our stomachs a grumbling at night

I’d wake and I’d bake you cookies for comfort

We would snack in the dark, eyes afraid of the light

And mouths, dust in chocolate, would whisper goodnight
