I have been in that bed before you.
If you try really hard
I bet you can still smell me.
I would lay on the side by the window.
He would wrap his arms around me
just like he wraps them around you.
He would pull me in
closer
and hold me so tight
as if I was going to fall apart if let go.
You know exactly what I’m talking about.
We used to spend mornings
laying in bed, wondering what to do all day.
You probably do the same thing.
There was never anything to do
until one of us got hungry.
Where do you guys go out to eat?
I bet I could guess.
Can you picture us laughing?
Sitting across from each other
Better yet,
can you picture us yelling?
He used to get so mad at me
and that makes you mad
because how dare he care about someone
other than you.
But he did.
Hate and love
they’re both obsession.
