Postpone
Salty wind pricks up my skin,
But sitting, the bench feels warmer.
I think I said my patience was thin,
But that had passed by an hour.
The towel, I think, weighs more
When I go to seek an alibi.
I walk two blocks, backtrack to four
Distract myself with shapes in the sky.
Just enough time has passed
Only now have I become alone
I blame poor timing for my outlast,
I'm glad we did not postpone.
