I find metaphors in silly things. Like the way you always walk ahead of me when we’re together, Or how you talk about me with your hands deep in your pockets. I found a poem in realizing that you’ve never heard my answering machine because I pick up every time you call, yet I could recite yours without thought. I found a song in the way you washed your hands after holding mine, And I know it sounds silly to hear a melody in coincidence, but I swear to god I felt myself go down that drain with the soap. I found a metaphor in the way you left without a reason, I could feel the rest of your life seeping through your shoes as you crossed over the doorway. I wonder if you’ll ever find them too.

I loved you, But you never gave me a place to put it.
