While you were getting your teeth whitened
I stopped by your place
I poked around a little, but first I washed your dishes
and cleaned your downstairs bathroom
I counted your shoes
twelve
six pair
and your husband's
twenty-two
pair
I washed my face with your soap and your husband came home and
made love to me
he didn't say a word the whole time he was here
I just sighed and thought
Isn't it always like this
I smelled some of your things
your hairbrush, and some things I found scattered around on the floor
beside your bed but it made me feel ashamed so I just tidied things up and left
when you come home you will see that there is not really much to do
so maybe you can just relax on the couch a bit
and listen to this rain
or if the rain has stopped
listen to the drips
and if even the drips and drops have stopped when you come back
from having your teeth whitened
you can just and listin to the wet.
That's what I would do.
