I Hear You

I hear your shallow breathing 
Groans and sharp inhales  
Of oxygen through your teeth 
Wet shoes at the 7-11 and the Chinese Zodiac 

I hear, “Can I get a room key?” 
Slamming doors and slapping skin 
More groans and one more door 
Then ours 

I hear, “She’s better than you,” 
And “I’m tired of hearing about it,” 
And, “You leaving was the best thing  
“To ever happen to me.” 

So when you sit there  
Telling me I’m the woman of your dreams 
And that I shouldn’t believe what I am hearing 
I hear you
