crows feet tracks leave gouges in skin another day passes where i couldn t make you smile a new ache reaches down and twists off my head the dead marrow refreshed by dialysis i remember when we were in love but time has taken that from us cut out a bigger missing piece and try to fit into someone else estrangement is our new normal too scared to leave but so hard to stay i have pictures of who we once were that life is over that time is past looking for ourselves in someone else constant autumn
