LAYOVER

You knew the name that went with my face
in a photograph
taken since we met.
You put it on the refrigerator with a magnet
~to remind you...?
~that I'm here...?
You do love me on your highest level
which is my lowest.
We shared dishes long enough that we became comfortable
treating each other within our limits.
You wore me as a coat on the coldest days
but I was the one who was cold
~on the hottest days~
(and I smile because you won't have a clue).
That you couldn't help leaving me in your boredom
is why I need to get off.
When people need to become invisible
forever...or just to rest,
sharing the journey can feel like love.

God, it's no fun to take a trip alone !
