a normal poem!
i’m going to write a poem that isn’t about you.
i’m going to write a poem that doesn’t talk about how you made me feel.
i’m going to write one that has a beginning and end; one different from ours.
one without an abrupt end and a heart racing start.
one that won’t mention the whirlwind of our love, the interlocking of our fingers, and the loss we felt.
a poem without that.
how hard could that be?
