Cherished [ex-boyfriend remix]
by Amy Vought Barker
she only laughed. dry and cool.
I overheard
in my bathroom
she smiles like shiny red polish
This is not a fashion statement; she is easily distracted
always uneven.
the type to disguise dried blood on her sixteenth birthday
even if the rest of her remains
a woman familiar with angry lines
From a distance a beloved friend
but
she changed
and left behind
