You

I don’t have a rocking chair, but rather a chair that rocks. It feels harmless enough. The first time I sat in my chair, I leaned back and felt a terrible plunge in my stomach as I started to fall. But at the last moment the bands of the chair shifted. I didn’t fall backward like I thought I would. But even now when I lean back, I forget.

My chair reminds me of you.
