that night with the green sky

________

it was snowing here and there at the same time
you were in the city and every time you looked up
someone was leaning out a window, watching you

think about how much someone liked you
you sat at the window and made your eyes wider
then squinted and leaned on the window with your forehead you looked confused

i think that maybe you were thinking that you’d make us disappear
by changing the shape of your eyes like you were thinking
while you leaned on the window

and that hurts
why did you want us gone?
i’m over it
why?

why?
some things aren’t worth explaining, i guess
like the color of the sky that night
