baggage

I remember that day clearly.
A warm summer afternoon
the sun breathed heavily,
the ceiling fan whirred in pain.
Suitcases of questions
had arrived home with you.
Later that evening, no one knew
what we were unpacking, or why.

The suitcases are empty now.
But our everyday conversations
are somehow so much heavier.
