i hope i don't miss
your ******, cavalier with the paint stains on the rooftop,
your out-of-place beard hairs that i'd pluck with my teeth,
your chipped tooth that you had fixed a few times then gave up on,
your eyelashes that outdid mine every day,
your timberlands,

the way you were my best friend,
my lover,
my everything.

i hope i don't miss you forever.
