NSA (No strings attached)

No

No strings

No strings attached

No attachments

No strings

No no…

Come hither

Come near

Come close

Just close enough

Keep a slip of space in between

Not between your skin

But between your hearts

And your feelings

So no strings can grow

So no strings can entwine

So no strings can attach

Ha! Got ya!

Now that there’s been time spent

It happened anyway

Push it away

push it back

But the heart still beats

Beats with the longing

Longing for attachment

Longing for strings

That it ultimately uses to hang itself

Because it knew

No

No strings

No strings attached

No attachments

No strings

No no…
