i fell in love between two breaths
the first -- the one you stole when you first kissed me
and you returned it promptly, breathed into me with a smile
i could never forget
the other was more subtle,
clocked between empty airport seats
and the realisation
that i may have missed something important,
and i might be too late.
i took a deep breath
looked straight ahead,
remembered what you looked like when i left
i didn't even tell you i loved you
