me on the shoulder
and says,
are you awake?
i am now, i tell her.
i heard
a noise,
she says.
downstairs, i think
someone
is in the house.
the kitchen light
is on.
no worries, we're good,
i tell her.
it's an ex
of mine.
i told her to come over
and get
her leftover
yogurt and salmon
from the fridge.
she still has my keys.
it's good, she's
back on her meds.
she won't kill
us.
go back
to sleep.
