And still,
Even after two years of nothing,
I still wait by the phone for your call.
I still wait by the door for the sound of your truck.
I wait for you to walk in and take off your boots
So that I might lay on your feet
And keep them warm the way I used to.
A play your voicemails on repeat and nothing measures up to the suffering that I experienced while with you.
when I hear your voice there, I almost remember what it was like to first be with you
Before all the trauma
Before all of the tainting
Before…
Before..
Before.
