i stared off into the shiny head of the light bulb and i tried to remember when i last wore glitter around my eyes.
it has been so long since I last saw you. you like to wear shirts and rubber shoes. tonight you told me you were leaving. i said, "ok."
we make it sound like the world needs more flowers, more vines to climb, more songs, more poems. we get lost in the mess.
you watch me, just like i do. i watch your mouth stagger through the words.
you walked away and I sat alone in an empty movie theater. they showed a film and afterwards i zipped up my sweatshirt and i don’t know if i would ever see you again.
"so long," i said.
