“i’ve always felt
like i was searching for
some place
something
someone”
those were the words
that slipped from your
alcohol infested mouth
at 3 am
windows shut
lights off
just us two
and only i could hear
i could have ignored it
pretended i didn’t hear
as if i had
no idea
what you were saying
i tried
but i couldn’t ignore
the words that next came out
“i think i’ve found it with him”
— i wish you said you found it with me.
