The "Some Dude's Birthday Party Poetry Tour"
Back in 2011,
When I was just this girl
Who just knew how to use words
In just the right way
To justify anything.
I remember the day we were almost killed accidentally,
By a flying queen sized mattress.
When you were just this guy
Who just knew how to love me
In just the right way
Without justification.
I used to write you love poems,
And you'd ask me if my seatbelt was buckled.
I remember sleeping on the floor in the living room with you,
Watching the A-team on the mattress we moved in front of the fire place
like we were in high school.
I remember flirting with you
When you came to see me at work.
And I remember when we went to Prescott together.
I remember how much I loved you.
It's been three years since I have seen you, or spoke to you.
I lived my life after you, knowing you were never coming back,
Knowing you were justified in your decisions,
Knowing I had to live with the consequences.
I wanted you to know I made it through the last few years,
And I have always been thankful for what you said to me before we walked our seperate ways.
You meant so much to me, no matter what it was that I did to cause it all to end.
We are just passing memories now.
But I remember them fondly.
