woke up at a reasonable time. doesn't seem like I can sleep in anymore. everything about my home seemed emptier- as if you had been with me all day and all night and had up and left at the crest of dawn with no more than a kiss to the forehead and an, 'I'm sorry, my love.' the sun-porched city skyline in the distance (church steeple next to apartment block) looks more beautiful than usual. I contemplate how you called me last night at 3:30 in the morning, your eyes Victoria Falls with sorrys and I love yous. I contemplate how we both imagine we'll meet again someday, how we'll fall in love again someday, how we'll be together again someday. a very large part of me hopes this is true, despite everything you have put me through- - despite everything I have put you through. but for the sake of lack -paralysis, I will move on. and I will love you. I will move on. and I will love you (again - - and again - - and again - - and again - -) there will be others, but you have a part of me not even I can get back.

the day after the party (hangover)
woke up at a reasonable time. doesn't seem like I can sleep in anymore. everything about my home seemed emptier- as if you had been with me all day and all night and had up and left at the crest of dawn with no more than a kiss to the forehead and an, 'I'm sorry, my love.' the sun-porched city skyline in the distance (church steeple next to apartment block) looks more beautiful than usual. I contemplate how you called me last night at 3:30 in the morning, your eyes Victoria Falls with sorrys and I love yous. I contemplate how we both imagine we'll meet again someday, how we'll fall in love again someday, how we'll be together again someday. a very large part of me hopes this is true, despite everything you have put me through- - despite everything I have put you through. but for the sake of lack -paralysis, I will move on. and I will love you. I will move on. and I will love you (again - - and again - - and again - - and again - -) there will be others, but you have a part of me not even I can get back.
you betrayed me, but time will forgive you
