Too Late 

I guess it's too late for coffee 
Not quite right for chocolate either 

The moment is calling for massage 
Long, slow breathing 
Leaning into, luxuriating 

But all I have are twist-untied wrappers 
And quiet telephones 
And empty inboxes 

I guess it's too late to reach for you 
Not quite right for rejection 

The moment is calling for awareness 
The birdsong is calling for the usual mystery 
 And I am no longer lonely.
