in the year you were mine

in the year you were mine

A Poem by VERONICA

No Disclaimers

"
It was Earth day all the time.
Softly we'd speak Spanish.
Green spinning around
us on a tire swing.
A Jamba Juice smoothie
watered down by the rain.
On the day I didn't listen,
in the year you were mine,
you consoled me with smooches
and gave leave for the witches
to let the sunshine break the clouds.
And in the second when that happened,
on the day I didn't listen
in the year you were mine,
I swear a rainbow cut across the sky
and a straight line through my heart.
Through my heart,
we'd eat berries for an
hour and plan to execute
mustardseeds.
The berries stained my lips purple
stained your lips red
stained your fingertips pink
stained me tan in the sun
In the year when I might have had someone.
