Are We Out of the Woods

 Rain, torrential downpour

Feels like my toes are frozen

I feel your presence

A phantom limb, it aches with 

desperation


My phone beeps with a 

text from you:

You: (Cat Emogi)

Me: (Kissy face Emogi)

We don't talk for another 12 hours


In Memphis, do you feel the edges

of my skirt?

Do you wonder what look

is on my face

Do you remember our first dance?

And the time I got drunk at a friend's wedding

I regret that


I think of you 

everyday

I never forget our first kiss

Our first dinner together

Snuggling under the cover, your pristine white

blankets

When we played in the 

rain
