Threadbare Heartache
I was kind enough
To put your shirt
In the drawer next to my bed
But I wish
I had the strength
To leave it on the floor instead
I want it to collect dust
But then that means
The last few months didn’t matter
Maybe I should just wear it
To cover up making
My heart shatter
Then you
Would see pictures
And think I still care
Which I don’t
Want you to know
So I’ll keep you unaware
What if I just put it
On the other side
Of the bed?
I won’t hold it
Like I usually do
But your cologne is still in my head
I’ll fold it again
And put it back in the drawer
With it cracked
I’ll sleep on the other side
Until the thought of you
No longer makes my heart react
