Longing
Today I remembered you
When I put on my boots
And when I saw our team logo
on the jersey of some dudes
Then during lunch, in the restaurant
for your inevitable love for meat
And later because of a picture
in the book I taught
My body was there, my mind was not
Then in the bulged eyes
of a guy on the billboard
In the email draft that was never sent
In the shower I'd love we shared
And on this empty side of my bed
