the comfort of the unknown

i don't remember
our last good-bye

on your porch
as the wind scolded us

or in tears
by the front door
as I tearfully angered
at your news

or on your couch
as our eyes met
with a fervor
our bodies ignored

i remember the stars
the way you carried
me over a puddle
so that I could stay dry

at least until
our last good-bye

i don't remember
because it wasn't our
last
it couldn't be
and if it is
it is better
i have memories
to wander in
