an end to an afternoon


Once 

I knew something about you

The air

With the way you walk

You were very loud

even in your own silence


But I still very much

forget it all

Because I still see you

In that desk

holding your neck

the way you sleep

The way you shut down

the afternoons

The raining days

And

how these were the only times

I've ever looked at you

Intently

Purposefully

Because


Along those halls 

with your frowns

Smiles

The stupidity

along with the lies

the implied

The Entasis

the very core of our flaws

are all in

The pool of water

After the rain

only its obvious difference

to better days

we are familiar of

Its gray hue

the low pitched tones

The resonance of it all

the only things.
