Dresser Drawer

you undressed a man
but left a boy behind

all i wanted from you was someone to stay
not too close
just in touch

when you said you cared
all i wanted was to believe you meant it

you were always very clear that
someone else's picture was on your mantle
and i never tried to change that

i only hoped you would save a piece of lint from my pocket
stuffed in the back corner of your top dresser drawer
and
maybe
call or text every now and then

but you don't
