“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.”
