Day

(c) 2016 

Let me tell you 
about the happiest day, 
or at least the sunniest day,
or maybe it was a day when sky 
cracked open spilling rain or hail 
or fire. It was a day. 
And let me tell you about my companion.
The cat. That boy I had a crush on. 
My best friend. A girl I met, and in one
transitory moment the world held
until it didn’t. It left me void,
waiting, dispassionate,
because things end and I don’t believe
they should.
