to you who has found so much
life in my work. who has taken
so much of me. and me from you.
we sit over coffee like
old war generals.

its nice.

its one of the first nice moments
we've probably had in awhile.

i buy gum on the way,
like i want to impress you.
i do want to impress you.

im embarressed for wanting that.
because you probably don't
and why would you.
this was all in a past life
so long ago.

the hug hello was a
bit tighter than the hug goodbye
but im glad we could end it
on a high note,
over coffee.
