i thought i was done
with you
and
your parts
it had been
a day ago
but it could’ve
been
a year
for all we
cared
we pushed ourselves together last night,
tried to make one living, breathing thing from two
and it was good
i took off my
shirt when i got home
from work tonight
and in a mat of crusty hair
on my navel was
a part of you i neglected to wash away
it was a part of you
i took with me
and
carried
all day
