Tonight I wear the clothes

you wore last night
when you had nothing to put on
and I gave you my t-shirt and boxers -
still smelling slightly of you,
the white of the cotton tinged now with the
sharp newness of absence,
of pain I never saw coming
like the proverbial train on the track leading
nowhere like what I'd hoped.
