you just move forward while i watch your tail lights fade

Your voice is so matter of fact on the phone, asking me if I want this or that, it's a wonder we were ever close.

How many times do I have to tell you that I do not want anything that reminds me of our relationship? Given that I want the wedding album you probably wonder why I don't want the etching your mother gave me when we got engaged. Well, knowing that you are not sentimental, here it is:

We each received one as a gift from your mom, and they hung together on the living room wall for ten years. I cannot bear to see them split apart.
