September 20

by Meghan Helmich

I've tried to stop falling in love
with such gravity,
said my whisper prayers to a god
that drinks half and half from the carton,
and slept at the opposite end of the bed.

I am still on my knees.
He will not listen.
The nightmares still come.

One of your most intense in the series, and quite possibly my favorite.
