Ink Well

It’s middle of summer

Drove through a long day 

Of mother heart frustrations

Misunderstood and overwhelmed 

Listening to frogs by candlelight

The gods sent rain to mask my tears

Been lost all week

In a modern day inkwell

Never enoughs and wasted time

Worrying to send you a ding

I really only want to feel 

Your mouth on me
