in the margin

i avoided throwing the papers out
the ones where i scribbled your last name after my first
and drew little hearts in the margin
and i had these dreams then, dreams of swimming
in the ocean, ocean
rushing over my hair
hair turning into kelp and seaweed
but the sun is still shining on me
through the water.
so i sent those papers away
in a bottle with a cap
and i put them in the sea
where they belong with you
