38

After the storm
that was more like a
whipper wool dagger,
I still feel numb.
I still see happy couples laughing
and doing all the happy things we used to do:
holding hands,
having sex
(though I don't see that),
and making drinks,
and watching sunsets from
parking lot curbs.
Oh how I want that.
Oh how I don't want anyone else to have that.
