Storytelling

.01

I look for you in all of the characters

in the books I read, compare them to

you and think about how much you 

were dressed up like a fairy-tale.

I still need you, but I'm learning to be

okay like when I am grocery shopping 

and I can't reach the top shelf or when

I am cooking and I only set one seat 

at the table.

But my God, when I woke up I couldn't

shake the times I spent falling in love 

with your childhood stories, the person

you become after one too many drinks,

the way you dance through the rain -

storms even after I panic about getting 

soaked.

So I make myself tea and tell myself I 

am doing perfectly fine without you,

even though my heart wasn't fooled 

this time.
