ever since i stuck that letter in your mailbox i have:

cried myself to sleep
slept for 12 hours straight
felt sad for having to wake up
smiled at people
listened to my coworkers complain about being overworked
folded napkins
broke a candleholder and swept up the glass
walked into a table and felt the brewing of a bruise
spilled coffee all over the bathroom counter
missed you
wondered when you would read the letter
or if you already had, then i wondered how
it made you feel
came to the conclusion that i am a terribly clumsy person
when i tell the truth.
