“there was a time when we laid on your bed

with the ceiling fan turning in dizzy circles

above our heads and forgot to look at the clock.

there was a time when we drank the kind of wine

that gives you a sweet ache in your teeth

and talked about the people we loved before

we knew each other existed. there was a time

when we felt so safe in your cheap apartment

with the front door locked against the past.

if someone would have told me that in two

years, I would be doing the same thing

across town in a different bed,

this time whispering your name

when I counted old hurts,

I would have screamed.”
