And here I am again.
In that blank space
that brings both relief
and torque.
Best friend,
you brought me here.
I carried your baggage,
and you kissed my cheek
with lips that blew
an anti-salutation
in my begrudged ear.
And here I am,
with bruised fingers
and eyes forced to stare
at your retreating form.
