when she loved me / clifford

48

ramona and i sat outside while mom shopped. she toyed with bracelets a lot. she had a scar on her neck. i think she saw me looking.

"it was from when i was in a dark place. i thank god that i lived,"

her words made me think.

about you.

always you.

did you ever ask god if he could help? did you even believe in god? you never told me that stuff.

now you never will.
