What More Can I Do

Quiet apartment, you sit in the window watching commuter trains leave the city and counting down minutes until Christmas can land in your bones. The day was warm, sunny, like a beautiful spring day but you saw it only as a gift. I stood along the river and stared straight into the light like it would save me, and it’s not unlikely that it did. There was a great hole in the earth yesterday, did you feel it? Sometimes I think the universe dialed us in to the same connection without realizing; I don’t know yet what it means. The commuter trains returning to the city are empty.

Sometimes I think my heart would beat out of my chest if I let it go.
