You (and me and you)

.

You are the girl in the window of the train

You are the girl who serves me food in the café

You are the girl I am dating’s best friend

You are the faintest touch of a dress

Against the back of my hand

You are the open window above my bed

You are the secret between us

That everyone knows

You are the late night phone call

You are the lips that kiss my eyes to sleep

You are the girl in the laundromat

Who doesn’t mind me staring

You are the hand that tugs at mine

When I want to stay

You are the photograph I cannot take

You are the girl, who, like me,

Doesn’t know what to say next

You are the love letter that

Doesn’t  know where to begin

And now you are this clumsy poem
