pushpins he wrote a poem
on the back of my hand
of loosened laces
and disheveled hair.
my palms grew sweaty
from the heat burning through
the words on the other side.
his smile thinned
and his poem washed away
in a public restroom far from home.
ink and blood faded
and of undone ties
and messy skins disappeared.
all things grow old
and our end had inevitably
begun.
