Jackson Avenue Intersects Washington Avenue

Jackson Avenue Intersects Washington Avenue

A Poem by Alexandra

Nothing like enjoying the night
For once alone
And someone comes up with right intentions
Structuring a story from long time ago
That was completely different from your own
“He wanted to leave you for someone else”
Well, I never-

I walked home
With tears in my eyes for some reason
I don’t recall
I wanted to forgive everything
I just wanted to crash in the snow
Remind me of long ago
Half a year doesn’t heal anything
And I stayed alright for the next two hours

The moment I stride home
All the weight on my shoulders fell
It was never fair
It’s still not fair
These tears won’t dry
It’ll never heal
October feels like yesterday once again

(I came home and turned on the space heater. I’m not sober, but I haven’t been for the longest time. I’ve only been trying to keep up with the last two years of my life dedicated to you. Your closest friends sat with me at the bar and I’ve never felt more amused. I just hope you’re okay.)
