26/09/12 it’s been a rough year
these are things i don’t miss
about the three weeks we spent together
the way your tongue
seemed too big for your mouth
the messy pile of junk mail
in the corner of your bedroom
your habit of falling asleep
on top of the blankets
these are things i miss terribly
about the three weeks we spent together
the way you laughed at my jokes
when i knew they weren’t funny
your coffee breath transferred to my mouth
when we kissed after breakfast
the tone of your voice making every word
sound like a quiet song
these are things that are possibly the reason
you no longer wanted to see me
i bled lightly onto your bed sheets
when i got my period in the middle of the night
you liked my hair down but the summer humidity
kept it in a ponytail everyday
i didn’t have a passport and you seemed
to always want to ‘get away’
well, i guess you did eventually.
those were a good three weeks.
it’s been a rough year.
