When it’s all about her.
When he schedules lunch six months out.
When she never calls first.
When he calls ten times a day.
When she’s never smiled at a stranger on the street.
When he gives you furs, and knows you want flowers.
When she has never cared for a sick child.
When he doesn’t visit for a month after you break your hip.
When she wants to bury you in a cardboard box.
When he says he wishes he were you.
When she says she is you.
When you can’t sleep after a visit.
When every dream warns you: wake up!
