The End of the Beginning



I had nothing more to say on the matter
and in moments like this, I took my time to consider the value of silence

and then I quickly rebuffed it with thoughts of us,
thoughts of the arb,

and the decibel of our laughter,
a pitch only we could hear,
you and I

I woke up in the middle of the night
and felt the opposite side of the bed was lighter

and certainly stiff as a board
and in there,
there were reasons to read between the sheets,
as I had done so many nights before

I screamed from the bottom of my rib cage,
because I could,

because I should
