manifest

by Angela Thomas

it's only a matter of time before i leave her, you tell me,
i just want to prolong it from happening for as long
as possible. i need to figure out how to fix everything first.

and i give you my humble opinion, with words that i don't want

to even hear cross my lips, let alone think about, if you can fix
everything by not talking to me, and that's what you want to do, i understand.

like hell i understand. i'd go crazy if i couldn't talk to you about nothing,
if your hand wasn't allowed around mine. more, if you didn't want that.

i had to stare at the tire of the car across the street and will myself not
to cry while i spoke, while i gave you all the power i had to let me go
if you wanted to. instead, you kissed my forehead and said, no fucking way
i'm going to stop talking to you. i'm miserable without you in my life.


and the ground seemed to stop spinning for the first time all night,
everything went quiet, a hush, like the first snow, blanketed any doubt in my mind.
