nothing it’s never nothing how long ago’d that start?
I love you and the way we dared
nobody I mean nobody wanted us to
and when the baby came
about then
since then
it’s never nothing
but maybe earlier than that even
when I came to you that December and said it
straight eyes open to your face
let’s have the baby now
by then for sure
that summer when you loaded up the Ryder
with S. and left
it wasn’t nothing
so at least that long ago to me
it wasn’t til recently
like ten years ago
I accepted it was
for you
for me it hasn’t been nothing
in a long time
maybe it will never be nothing again
everyone should have nothing
at least for a little while
before we die
