forever, girl

dink-dank,
a long
handled spoon
againstaglass
of late afternoon iced-tea.

the sun melts
us.
sweating
away nevers
on a bruised porch.

our swing.
our life.
our kids.
our choices.

the plains
stretch
past the past
we left behind.

a newer
you,
the old me,
x's and o's.

forever, girl.
we said forever, girl.
