I put all your physical words in a box-
"you are ADORABLE" scribbled on a receipt
the book with the pictures of
New York City and the one with
the history of Christmas
the map from the pumpkin patch
your band's cds
a 9 volt battery
a button from the trails west
festival
a ticket to the show your band played at your dream venue
my ticket stub from This Is the
End
directions to Kim's house
the journal you gave me for
Christmas with a letter from you
on the first two pages
a napkin I kept hidden in my wallet with "you are very cute" written in your smallest print
a Virgil's Rootbeer bottle cap
from our second first date
(god did you know I had kept all those things)-
but I can't figure out how to package all the sentences you left swimming around in my head
