the calm before the storm
the breeze at my back
a bundle of curls
against my arm
the warmth of a tiny cheek
pulls the stitches out
pries the skin apart
reveals a wound long since scabbed over
the memory of our anniversary
sends me down the mountain
calm before the storm
the rain, it catches up to me
stealing the warmth
of a tiny cheek
