January Jones

we met in September under cloudy chances
rolled out in May on a coconut stick,
the length of October you remained
while others looked away

thoughts from my head
bleed through these fingers
and onto the page
coming alive in a dream
you are here

we scrambled for days and nights and back again
time stood still while we,
oblivious to all
continued in spite of the pain
November came

it wasn't enough to know
untouched is how we left it
unspoken

if I could rewind
return to another time
knowing what I do
I would still choose you

it never changes around the outside
how the sun scorches red and blue
laughter is bare around angry hearts
time stood still
while we,
oblivious to all
refrained

when there was no reason to
December blue

and yet
who's to say it was the right thing
who's to say it was wrong?
all I know is that we were there
all along

on a very dark side
back to the phones, 
January Jones
