you were my 11:11
my penny in the pond
my bay leaf on fire
my rainbow from beyond
*
you were the flame that I blew out
on my favourite birthday cake
and the wish that I made
because of all that was at stake
*
you were all of my thick stray eyelashes
covered in mascara and tears
falling from their homeland
though it had been years
*
since they could spare a moment
from tapping on wood
though all of this, inevitably, would be
misunderstood
