waiting for sweets

she's very kissable.

i can see that from

here.

a pastry

with icing, 

sitting on a shelf

behind the window.

i've been out all

night in the cold.

i stand

and stare

at my watch waiting

for the sign

to say open.

for the lights to go on

for the baker to say

come in.

come in come in where

it's warm.

tell me what you want,

why you've waited so long.
