You build your world around someone, and then what happens when
they disappear? Where do you go-into pieces, into atoms, do you fly
blindly into the arms of another man? You go shopping; you go to
the movies, and art galleries, to a friend's home for dinner. You
work odd hours. Do you make love to someone else? Someone you
hardly know? Consider the hours, the days spent in this room,
imagining myself to be the vase on the window ledge, the chair
sheltering cautiously under the desk, to be the sulfur head of an
exploding match, the shattered lead ripped out of the broken pencil
on the floor. If you squint your eyes, you think you see him again,
but he's never there. It's only his spirit, a memory, that's what's
there under the bed when you kiss someone else. It's in your coffee
cup, in your bath water, in your tears. And it will always make you
cry. Unfinished business always comes back to haunt you, and a man
who swears he'll love you forever isn't finished with you until
he's done.
