she is collecting memories
for the day when
he is no longer here
today she fills her casket
with
3 ofcourseiloveyous
1 nosheisjustafriend
2 ilikeyoubiggers
and a brief
reluctant
kiss
she tucks her treasures
safe away
scrabbling frantic
for his fallen phone
with
that number on it
he wonders
why she keeps
a box of nails
beneath the bed
more shelves
presumably
