October
The month before winter drapes itself over the skeletons of summer
A strong wind forces leaves into independence
Scraping across black pavement,
Gathering in corners
Fall always catches me with my pants around my ankles
Summer is a costume I am shedding
There are little victories I celebrate silently
While you sit next to me
Unknowing
And you recognized the fight in me
Long before [...]
Your Big, White Truck

You can’t just leave
The stain of your voice upon my answering machine
Carelessly
It didn’t inspire a heartbeat until the second time I heard it
Because loving you is no longer an instinct
