1976

She came around to the back
She parked her car 
 and didn’t even bother
With inquiring at the front
She just walked around the building to the back
I was sitting on an empty crate
Just outside the overhead doors
Taking a break
Smoking a cigarette
She stood there for a minute
Just looking at me
There was tension
I honestly did not know
If she was there because
She couldn’t stand being away from me
For another second
Or if she was going to throw my keys
At me and tell me
She had had enough
And oddly
I was okay either way
If I could have just frozen that moment
Walked away from it
And never learned the outcome
I don’t think I would ever had wondered
Not much
I knew it was going to be over soon anyway
Just like you know when the season
Is about to change even though it hasn't yet
We ran out of good times
That’s all
We just ran out of good times
