no easy way

she smiled like a knife-
the worst kind of easy
filling in the cracks

lost at sea,
panicked yelling in unison because
        of lost baggage in between
        connecting flights
acts of war &
sound life advice

with our fashionable shoes
        questionable choices,
        & razors for manners

i’m stealing your words
sometimes i say things that
    aren’t meant to
    hurt
    but they do

you move your mouth around
the words
summing it up with more
    than it’s worth
miscommunication
is an art.
