You were too tired to go out, so I went to a movie by myself.  I called afterwards, got voice mail and assumed you went to bed early. What a shock to see you a later outside Starbucks kissing a guy. You said you loved me and I was the only “one”. I’m a stupid fool! D.S.

All the wishes of my mind know your name,
And the white desires of my heart
They are acquainted with you.
The cry of my body for completeness,
That is a cry to you.
My blood beats out your name to me, unceasing, pitiless—
Your name, your name.
Mary Carolyn Davies
