thank you for the memento
this piece of you for
my knick knack shelf<\/p>

your kisses are gone<\/p>

your rough palm
over my mouth
and the five olive bruises
on my forearm will
fade with time<\/p>

so i\u2019m glad you left me
something i could treasure
and that time will
not take away<\/p>

i can look at it until the
light of day fades
and even then<\/p>

i will always know
that it is there<\/p>
