A Note in the Living Room



 Caroline,
call
   if
  you
 find my
  heart.

  somewhere around the bank, I remember
you saying that I shouldn't be so sad,
that I was an interesting person under
all my obsessions with cleanliness.

  sometime after you said
"I hate you" I think it must
have slipped out of my pants.
