Untitled Poem #1

32 4 1
                                    

All my words add up to you - 

and the way your voice sounded - 

and how your calloused fingers felt

against my cheek - 

and the way you looked at me - 

like you were drowning

and I was oxygen - 


All my words add up to you - 

and how you set my heart on fire - 

and how my heart hurts for you - 

and the pain you feel 

while you watch him 

love me - like you did before

you threw me out - 

     because he's replaced you - 

     and he plays the part better.
