Strains on a marriage
Work that couldn't get done
Introducing friends
Birthdays, laced with jealousy
Using words on purpose to hurt someone
"How did it end up this way?" her husband thought
codes
symbols
borrowed
All of that interesting work
breaking away the story
cracking parts
feeling ones body you've never
dreamt about
the stubble left all over his body
they held each other so fucking closely
that for once, she wasn't thinking
then,
they stared at each other (and she was so thankful)
to shave off the hair
and see his face, for the very first time
