(Do)n't Do It

Turn off the lights, close the door.

Who’s there? Is it you?

What happens next?

Did you think this through?

Is it a one night thing?

Regret?

Maybe you should take it slow.

Maybe not on top, but just beside for now.

Patience.

Can you feel it?

Is it growing?

How long can you resist?

Do you ever let it go?

Do you ever let them know?

Distance.

Closer.

Coming.

Opening your arms but keeping your mouth shut.

Silence, but you’re screaming inside.

You can’t.

You won’t.

Let it go.
