The first week you moved in,
you threw a housewarming
party in the new place. It fades
to just so many lazy dreams
—pinpricks in a lampshade,
spilling drinks in the living room.
Well, it happens—it happens all the time.
If you’ll let me, I want to see
you set off on some bright new straight,
fall back on the old ways. I hear you
shuffling papers on the phone.
You carpet-cleaned the furniture,
ripped up the old up-
holstery on your loveseat.
I guess it happens—it happens all the time,
if you let it. I want you to see
that it happens—it happens all the time,
if you let it.
I want to see you make that hard decision easy without me.
We’ve grown so close, but it’s over. I’m sobering up.
