Forget-me-not

I've lost track of time
without you
not in the pleasant infinity
of a potential us
but the vacant reality
of shrugged smiles
gestures aimed at placating
the ever-present crush
of not you

It's not so bad now
only I can't remember
if it's been one year
or five
if tomorrow marks some
milestone turned millstone
that I'll be dragging
with a dumb grin
past a need for time
