on those days we spent weaving
into each other on my mattress
perhaps we were writhing we just didn't know
we didn't have to care
if we let the summer fall into
the blue someone else would
haul it out
and resuscitate
the days we just let our phones ring
and wore the song to bed
beneath nothing
but our laughter thicker than my duvet
i guess i'm lucky i can be heartbroken
for a reason
i was heartbroken for so many reasons none
of which i can place or replace
on the wall where the sun tore our photos
into ribbons of shadow
we made the mistake of holding each other
too close
to the light
was i always warm or just aware that you were near me
i'm a rusted furnace with nothing but bones to burn
apparently
there's always a better fire burning in another town

i don't know if this follows well but here we are
