I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
I was just getting used to living life without you around
You didn't see me, I was falling apart
I was a television version of a person with a broken heart
Rabbits playing in hills. I made a wave line on the outside of this cup after I threw it on the wheel, and then I slipped on some rabbits on top of the waves. I glazed each rabbit with pink, waxed the pink glaze, and the dipped the outside of the cup in celadon. my etsy pottery shop: http://etsy.com/shop/skimlines
I remember looking at sequined gowns on the corner and then being alerted my estranged boyfriend was shot, gasping it to the ladies with dresses
I remember getting two coffees after psychically confirming how he took his so that it would be waiting for him when he finally made it over
And I remember cleaning the house in preparation for him to walk through the door but I was wearing black matching underwear, not fancy, just black, and thinking how strange it was to be cleaning in underwear, and how unlike me
I remember sitting on the couch, facing the door, talking to the baby who at the time I had been advised was a girl, and her saying that she would come back to us if we got pregnant again because of something overly emotional
I remember gripping the doorway after I got his text telling me it was entirely imagined
I remember walking down driggs in a black loose house dress, tears streaming down my face as I attempted to breathe and comprehend what had happened for the last 72 hours and getting to the park and walking straight to a tree for the very first time and grabbing hold and weeping against it
And I remember hearing this for the first time while in the park the next spring, and putting it all together
