remembering

like a tree i grow

away from the ground



i dont want to look at you

in pictures

anymore



like a tree i give my memories

of soil away

for the sun



the bombshelter full of blunt smoke

on poetry wednesdays



like a tree i breathe in carbon

and exhale oxygen



i keep trying to rationalize

our goodbyes



like a tree i forget my roots are deep

within the earth



the day you first shot

your shy smile down into me

at the shopping mall

when i was 15
