For The Rest Of Your Life- Part 4

The police knew me.

That’s the part I couldn’t understand.

My name.

Where I worked.
What I drove.
Where I lived.

Only one person knew enough
to give them that.

You.

I called you until my phone died.

I needed you to tell me
there had been a mistake.

I needed you to say
you panicked.

I needed anything,
a simple word that’d keep the flame of our love alive.

But you wouldn’t answer.

And for the first time
since I met you,

I understood.

Maybe I didn’t know you.
