I'm not going to forget about you
He said
Expelling sighs, disappointments
I throw punches because I never really got to.

I canceled my whole day
Pink sweatpants became my name
Slept deeply and tried to forget.

He called me with vague words
As I spun in circles and spoke out
I didn't know there was someone else
This whole time as I laid on my yoga mat
At the end of class
The sweat and the tears
All becoming one fluid.

I try to heal my bones, my heart
Feeling the darkness that has ascended above me
Reaching up with avid arms
I give myself a break
I try to give myself a break.

Tomorrow we'll have to sit near one another
I wave and then wave goodbye
It's like every time you reach for me
I just want more
And you have offered all you have to offer.

I don't know what will happen from here
I stand inside my vulnerability
Wishing I could just have all of you
I was the interruption
I was the new girl
I was the one who came in
What feels like
Last.
