Chipped Nail Polish

...like chipped nail polish,
or like a shirt that has a tag that always scratches down your back,
or shoes with pressure points drawn on them,
or like the way a paper cut feels,
or how it feels when a cold wind hits you for the first time since you left
your house,
or when you get caught outside in a cold thunderstorm,
or the way a fork sounds on a porcelain plate,
or when you wake up to find your weekend plans were canceled,
or the taste of stale bread,
or you stub your toe,
or when you get slightly shocked,
or you lose your keys,
or how you fight with a pickle jar,
or how your socks stay wet all day,
or a stained favorite shirt,
or a bee sting,
or the way you say the wrong thing at the wrong time,
or when you almost reach, but not quite,
or when you think there is another step,
Well… I like you more than chipped nail polish.
