i.ve memorized all these deep and distant parts of you. like a shadow. like part of something more but barely escaping you or me or our 3rd floor shitty apartment.
the sun goes down over 4th avenue and i can't help but think, "i.ve been here before."
i.ve memorized all those sideways glances that you've given me over the years and the way your hand reached for mine under the table of a restaurant i no longer know the name of. I’ve memorized those moments and I hold them the way the city holds the sun and the power lines and palm trees. careless. haphazardly.
we were better people then.
all those dirty city lights
& our secrets.
