He left me

and the heart

that didn't beat

is now bleeding

My stomach has-

grown small

Since he left (14 days, 3 hours, and 19 minutes)

and smaller still

since i saw his new boyfriend

My old habits die away

when i think about

Somebody Else

holding the the hand

that i refused to, out of embarrassment,

and tonight, Somebody Else

will hear

how breathless he gets

when he's talking about a movie,

or a new  cd

or anything he's remotely interested in

and Somebody Else will look at them

while they're at a resturaunt,

or probably a coffee shop,

and think about how perfect they look together

and He'll play with Somebody Else's

hair

until they fall asleep

while my mind runs away

and my body stands still
