we are

I wake.
And the fire still burns.
I was another person yesterday
Though I am still today.
Do you remember what we said to each other?
the vitriol we vomited forth.
We were alone
together.
we were as we are.
The two of us.
Together
We spoke of
things of other places
dimensions far
and apart
we breathed of absence and loss
we bragged of times that we lived in
the time you jumped so far
down.
The time you were so angry
the time you were so far
from everything.
I was afraid,
I was far away too
I was in another place
I was somewhere
doing something you can't understand
I am more than this now
Or I was.
I let something go
and  it burned
in the fire.
But I worked through
those scattered things
I woke many times
I am more than  I was then
You
are me
Are then as you were
now.
