foolish

you reach out, i shrink back
off track and put off
trapped in, caught up, cut up
and non-stop. make me stay,
watch me go, push me out
take me home. show me off,
hide the goods, kiss my mouth
if you could. coax me out,
watch me fall, bite your lip
when i call, no solace,
but silence, so golden i’m holding
your right hand and looking
just so fucking foolish.
