Subject: For Anne Marie

Anne Marie used to come around here,
I still have her poem "For David" saved on a disk.
It alwsys struck a nerve with me because it told about her relationship,
How she cheated on her guy and screwed it up.

I was cheated on by someone I dearly loved, I don't think I got over it
but it was nice to see her side of the glass, the other side.
She talked about how she missed him and how she always looked for his car
And how every time she saw someone she thought it was him.
I always imagined that my girlfriend felt that way about me too,
I often wonder in my times of reflection, whether she thinks of me.
Whether she looks twice at someone thinking at first it was me?
My ponderous resolve keeps me open to feeling so hurt and aware.
Swaying on a precipice of love and life and sex and dreams and what could have been.

Cold clouds descend like women who have hurt my fragile heart.
Women who have promised me the world and delivered me to anguish, all but one.
I'm rejoicing in my own sullen way for finding the one I love these days.
But I cannot forget all the pictures in the piles,
I cannot burn that stack of smiles just yet...but I should.
