Written in the Stars (it seems)
It's funny how often your name pops up.I hadn't noticed it before...
I didn't notice that "Sierra" was running for NHS secretary
(The posters lined the hallways when we first formally met,) or
How many contacts I had by that name in my phone.
Now everywhere I look there is
Something with your name or initials.
I'm always (absentmindedly) tailgating
Some truck, and then I realise,
It says SIERRA in bold letters on the bottom left corner.
The same way every notebook I seem to own says
Mead(s) at the top.
mead I suppose
With that swooping, curved m
The way you write it.
The way you wrote it on the side of my finger.
(You know I traced that for a very long time...
In fact, I wrote it there again last night,
Trying to mimic your handwriting.)
To remind me of you.
It seems the whole universe (God?) wants me to.
