You Should Know
You haven’t touched me
in ninety-one days. I don’t
know how to tell you.
I haven’t seen your
face in twenty-six days but
it does not miss me.
I’m not allowed to
say I need you so I’ll say
this instead. I care.
I do think I love
you. I don’t think it’s enough.
But I still read the
notes you wrote me. I
still trace your signature with
my eyes. You should know
the spider of your
handwriting still crawls into
my heart late at night.
I haven’t called you
crying in four hundred and
fifty-seven days.
I had not written
you a poem like this for four
hundred fifty-eight.
