jen
raze where did i walk
with you in winter?

i remember the coat
i hated and the part
in my hair, straight
down the_middle.

i remember loving
the way you spoke.

it was something
your voice did
to the distance
between each word.

the way you said
my given_name.

i remember the jeans
i never wore, handed
down from your brother.

they were too blue.
too wide in the waist.

i remember the way
my mother looked you
when she saw your body
glowing and swollen with
a child not yet born.

but i can't remember
where we went or why
that_day when i wasn't
yet my fullest self.
