day 11 - odi et amo
--
i am still in love with you
and yet if i were to see you one day
while i’m out walking in the neighborhood,
i would quickly cross the street
because i don’t want to catch up and know if you’re good.
i want you to be happy
but it hurts when i am no longer there
to see you smile while watching your favorite movie
or hear your incredibly contagious laughter
after i do something unintentionally goofy.
i still think of you often
and yet i cannot stand to hear your name
because the figurative stitches i’ve sewn
will start to unravel, start to come undone,
and i will eventually wear away to the bone.
