the things we don't talk about

your mother / how neither of us feels God / anymore / at all / the prayer vigil / the grief / my scars / the doctor from panama / my dirty hands / the last i love you / at the funeral / the nightly phone calls / the move / colombia / clinica del country / the surgery / and when you left / and thanksgiving / how you look through me / april 19th / the last time you prayed and meant it / why you’re silent at dinner / connecticut / the Church / and the people / how they’re dying / how you don’t want to visit / your in laws / michigan / bont street / mom’s tears / my tears / your tears
