[daydreams of exaggerated feelings]
soft
meant
hold on
during the shakespearean era
like
wait a minute, let's pause
with her
soft
meant
the way she played the piano
and
the way she tied her hair up
and
the way she would lay
with her head hanging over the bed
upside down
and
the way she sang me to sleep
and
the way she bit into carrots
and
the way she would write letters
with her pen tilted
sideways
she was so soft
and the way she left;
her softness
left me in pieces
