You don’t have to go home, but you can’t stay here











{July 2, 2008}   When We Fight

When we fight.

We don’t do it often

but when we do

my pulse beats like splattering rain

my heart shrivels

like soldered ashes

and everything is dark and bad

but when we fight

I realize how much there is to lose

that whatever the argument,

this love is stronger

and that the real fight

is the one in me

never giving up on you

on us.
