I woke up sweating,mosquito-bite behind my ear
I scratched until it bled
the sheets are soaked,the one beside me sleeping still
I’ve never felt more alone

Iget up slowly,that quiet song still in my head
pee in the sink and watch the sunrise
I walk down to the place where all the seagulls feed
undress and dive....

If there were two of us
we could hide in the cupboard
if there were a million of us
we’d ban summer
