"The first time I met you, I knew you would leave me. It would happen suddenly, perhaps on a Thursday. Already I possessed the memory of it. An autumn evening spent like so many drab moments, tiny gray ones, followed by weeks of shadows.

We didn't even notice the change at first. Everything looked so tired. Even the apartment buildings looming across the street like lit honeycombs kept closing their shades.
