hiccups

heartbeat, i
hiccup
hurt, heave
sighs, hide
salt in my
eyes, hurry
to class
and hike
stairs to a
room where
you are not.
heartburn i
hiccup and
your name
comes out
pops out
out of context and
dressed up like
a rainbow in a
soap bubble.
heartache i
hiccup gasp for
breath dream
you are coming
back wake
blink and find
that the curve
of my waist
is hands free no
hand is on me
tonight.
