lady beggar

if only

the lack of structure

in her words

and

the lack of sanity

in her eyes

could help you notice:

the constraints she left behind

are the same holding you down.

uncoupled

and in the morning
you will find
a fresh-cut rose
at your doorstep.

and you will know
it was me
without asking.

and you will know
I cut it for you
because you didn't

ask for it.
