“We could just pretend

like this is the first time

we have ever met.

But this time we could

go into this with a little

more knowledge than what

we had before. Maybe this

time we could put our hands

around each others hearts;

keeping the most important

vessel safe, instead of placing

our hands around each others

throats. Maybe this time

around we could create love

instead of space, and fond

memories over bitter thoughts.

Maybe this time around

we can do it right.

And even if we can’t,

maybe we can at least

end it like we did.”
