repose

_____

that's what I wanted to tell you.

all the things you could say, you're saying this.
"with all the fish in the sea?" "not like her."

these are what I am thinking when I am at the window. when I wake up. when I brush my teeth.
my mind returning home, says i'm so sorry.

"I want to know things."

why didn't you tell me sooner?

I just wanted to hear you say it.

-so you're not angry? - I'm not done yet -shhh... -just let me get my mind around this. -what is that--that metaphor? -don't do this. -I'm sorry.

I miss you. I'm looking out the window, this is the voice in my head.
To me these are the only real things in the world.
