If only you knew
how it made me feel
every time you kissed her.
What happened to our deal?

of clenched teeth and an impassioned, 
deer-eyed death stare.
All grace...

My galoshes were covered in rain,
I thought, “oh my word! This is a pain!”
But my shoes were found dry,

the residue of goodbye still drying on your lips
dripping like lazy concern ...
forsaken memories bloom like weeds about us

So why make assumptions we put in place and believe,
Some things we know beyond the shadow of a doubt,
And even then we're still trying to figure...
