what rains on my parade.
by Meghan Helmichquit.
i'm still swimming in a brackish puddle of you,
face to one side, breathing above your edges.
i might wake up for months feeling this failure.
frayed emotions, severed and waving in my face.
it couldn't (won't allow itself to) come full circle,
just like you always come, alone with my gripping
eyes on your skin. and i never do, never quite there
or quietly sighing in forgiving fashion. 11/05/2007 Author's Note: my first afternoon scribble.
