DIVORCE

I reached to call you and you weren’t there

You haven’t been since summer

And all I want to do is walk home to you

lie in bed and tell you what she said

How bad he smelled

And how they talk too loud

All I want to do is run my fingers through the hair on your chest and hear how much louder your heart beats because of me

And all I want to do is call you to say I miss you

I miss the way we were

the way we were is not who we are

Who we are, are just vague strangers on a train who flash a strained smile to acquiesce to our embarrassment and anxiety

Who we are is never what I wanted it to be

But here we are

WHAT’S YOUR NAME?
