Missive

I think.

I think that its time

to take out my heart

to take the scalpel

and cut the capillaries

bandage the ends

and sew the incision.

 

I thought.

I thought that I would

not feel so empty

that it would be easy

to take the yesterdays

apart.

 

I am thinking.

I am thinking about

what happens next

when does the feeling

alone, pass

when does the past become past?

 

I forgot.

I forgot that when I took my heart out

I gave it to you.
