Just a Year (Free verse) by italenrico
cold cigarette butts in the ashtray
remind me of you; how we both
smoked two packs a day
way back when
before my lungs couldn't take it
you cut back with me.
lying in bed in the place I found
you reminds me of the first
time we kissed
way back when
your innocence, I can still
taste it on my lips if I try.
albums of pictures of the life
we built together; the promises
we thought we'd always keep
way back when
before I skipped your funeral
in order to get high.
