Once she was so mad at him that she slammed the door shut hard enough for the windowpane to break
And the glass shattering on the sidewalk sounded
like a summary of his entire life
Once he was so mad at her that he left for three weeks and didn't call or write, and the silence on the end of the phone sounded like the way her lungs stopped in the cold
That had been seeping in ever since that door broke
Once they were so mad at each other that they didn't talk for days.
Then when they finally spoke again they kissed until they couldn't anymore.
