October once
smelled of cinnamon and pine
tasted of syrup and candy corn
and looked like the forest
on a drizzly evening
with sunlight
kissing the edges of

of dry heaving
on a painfully white
toilet bowl
tears streaming down a face
unloved and unwanted—what happened to my favorite month of the year?
