She left when the light no longer washed over her sun-touched skin, The blinds covered up her crinkled nose and selfish grin, I asked when?, She said never, We laughed it off, I said "you better", Sure enough I did, I saw her that week, I smiled when she opened her car door, Went to kiss her cheek, Skin smooth under my lips, Her perfume was sweet, Winter pushed to summer, According to the heat, It was time for you to go, Alone in my room again, Except this time you'll be gone, Time for back to what I've been, "Have fun" I said, It slithered out between my teeth, You said you would but you'd miss me, I laughed and knew this was the last time I'd kiss your cheek.
