Dating II

it was a year ago today
since I saw him last

it was a year ago yesterday
that he told me he had no affection for me
branded it into my psyche

it was a year ago yesterday
and on this anniversary
by coincidence only
he emailed me
wondered if we were on speaking terms

it was a year ago
I would have forgotten it was our anniversary
if he hadn’t contacted me

it was a year ago
I cannot bring myself to believe
he’s been counting, too

  2. Nice poem lady, now let me say a few words of my own.

    It has been 4 years since we last saw each other. I am talking about “the” person, the important thing. It has been 4 years that it has been dating the girl who it cheated me with.

  3. jessie: thanks

    mariana: heartache be damned. Counting be damned.
