Unstable

Where do we stand

Kitchen counter crumbs stick to

Hands glued to surface

I can’t let go too quickly

I am feeling quite unstable

You are sitting at the table

We once bought together 

With the leg that still needs fixing

It is feeling quite unstable

I can barely stand this silence

When did our love grow so quiet

So unstable, so unsure

I wish you’d feel a little more

Frightened by love’s flightiness

Tell me, will you fight for this?
