We and Us and I

Nicole – a kind of love, and a kind of hate, and something that was and was not.

Nicole Lyons

I am so overwhelmed
with the way I love you
and hate you
and look for you still.
I am overcome with the us
that never was, and the we
that never existed,
and I know that we, and us,
and I will be better off
when I close the door
to this nothing,
and pull the curtains
across the windows
I have left open, just in case.
