A Paper Chain

Copyright Julia Bydulia.

There’s a paper chain of memories
looping around the bumps and corners
of my subconscious.

How long have you been there,
lurking in the shadows,
waiting?

I run my wrist through the holes
and wear the years like bracelets,
all the time trying to convince myself
that that’s all that’s left:

a few good years (and some change)
that we shared blindly
but together.
