It's been 19 hours
and I think I've finally ****** away
the ***** I drank while giving you shots of water
so you wouldn't get sick
I thought maybe you were too drunk to notice
but I guess you weren't because you smiled
at me with a sincerity I can't come close to describing
It's been 19 hours
but the wrenching pain in my stomach
still hasn't gone away.
and in the airport today
I bought a bottle of water and some pepto bismol
and as I handed her my debit card,
the cashier asked me
if I was heading home
and I just
*******
choked
and I'm talking about the really ******* ugly kind of crying here
and the poor thing didn't know what she had done wrong but
she told me about her grandfather
who used to say that crying
is just your body's way
of getting rid of the toxins
and making itself stronger
Its been 17 hours since I last saw you
and I don't know how long it will be
before I see you again
but I really,
really hope that it isn't too long.
