"hollow stages" by Sabyne Pierre

Hollow stages make 
For excellent bedroom sets
Here lies an intimate scene I said goodbye to long ago 
It is as if I inhaled and I am still waiting for the cue
Waiting for the blinding lights,
The pregnant, long overdue silence, the pent up nerves
Vibrating every corner of my body
An empty stage still looks just as beautiful, I imagine, 
Not too long
So,
I wait
