£5 and a stick of gum

A fiver and a stick of gum. That’s all I took when I left you. Ribs throbbing, nose bleeding. No refuge but distance from you, your warm arms that squeezed air from my lungs, while cold heart never number the pain. I drowned in your eyes and never made it up for air. Until now. £5 and a photograph in my pocket, brothers at arms.
