dear r: but
dear r :
she held my hand.
she opened the car door for me.
she laughed hysterically with me.
she kept the conversation interesting.
she paid for my dinner in an overpriced restaurant.
she took me home tipsy.
she gave me three very delicate kisses.
she did everything perfectly.
but she isn’t you.
you would leave me empty handed.
you would never open my door.
you wouldn’t have laughed like that.
you would’ve had me pick up the tab.
you would’ve had me out all night.
but…
you would have kissed me with ferocity
that i can still feel eight months later.
i don’t miss you now.
i miss you then.
you were my art.
now your absence is.
