[the-writing-jem]

Your memory feels both old and new.

/

The pain of you is familiar and overwhelming, but not unexpected. Yet each time I am as wholly unprepared as the first time I thought smelled your cologne in a crowd.

/

I am scabbed over, not entirely healed, and my rough surface catches on every memory of your hands, your voice, your face...

/

No joy
