the only
thing
we ever
got right
was touching
each other.
—
do not
reverberate
off
skull walls
[playfully
poking me,
grabbing
my hips,
pulling
me
into you]
—
do not
speak in
our
voice,
use
our
mannerisms.
i see
you still
wear them;
stretching
them
across
your face
for
someone
else.
—
your voice,
a
bird-whistle;
you fill
any
room with
ear-shattering
sound.
i leave
because
you
make
-everything-
too crowded,
and
every move
of mine
a tactic
to run
into you.

Thank you for sharing this. It’s exactly where I’m at after breakdown of my 18 year marriage. We were growing old together, half way there…. I don’t know what I was thinking

Spending that much time with someone and then losing them is one of the most difficult experiences. I think anyway that says it isn’t is lying. Best of luck to both of us.

could you rephrase that? i just reorganized all my posts into the ones i’m fond of and the ones i’m labeling “works in progress.” so, i’m interested in here all the critique i can get 🙂
