Your life may never be the same,
but there will come a time when I don't
drive you to distraction
occupy your mind
engulf your every moment
but I am not here for the conception of new memories:
coffee
arguments
commercials
Sunday dinners
shared cigarettes
pregnancy news from family
getting high
getting sick
car ride album listens
dark room hair pulls
bright room eye locks
glances across the table because
everyone else is so stupid, aren't they?
squeezing into a too small bath together
They are all disintegrating
moments break apart
fall away from you,
left only with the clichéd sand through your fingers
like the memories of the
sme l of my b eath
f el of my tou h
