A day in August
There was a day.
it was in August
we visited your mother
in the hospital. Afterwards we went
to a beach side burger joint.
We sat and talked and laughed. We ate
ice cream fresh from the dairy, and you stripped
in the parking lot
while parents sat with their children
in ignorance. I remember walking with you
that day.
We were between a shoe store and the
Salvation Army and I almost loved you.
In that moment I know I wanted to.
And then that night as we were driving
my right hand
reaching up into you. Hoping to touch your heart.
You pushed me away.
You said it was too much.
That was when I knew
I never would reach you.
