Breaking the chronic trust between my heart and your smile
Like teaching my heart how to beat,
like learning how to walk again after a fall
One that I wasn’t sure I’d be able to get back from 
No accord, no pact, no agreement could be made 
The writing on the wall facing the rain would fade
The chalk outline on the floor where my body once laid
disappeared into the water, taken up by the rain.
Breaking the chronic trust between my heart and your smile
In another universe we are together
In another universe, I could freely watch you smile.
