Actually, I'm Just Wearing Your Glasses

I watched your cheeks flush, colored by an air from a calgary cold front

Your breath made ghosts spill into the night

And gather as if they might not disappear

So it hung in the air like a fever, or a slow moving front

And I would not find shelter here, so I braced myself

"Out!" I cried, "out!

Are you running to or are you running from?

Or does it even matter if it won't change your mind?"

When you put you hand on mine
