Amiss
Do I miss you
Because
You're far?
Do I miss you
Because
It's been awhile?
Why do I miss
What do I miss
What what oh what
Is amiss?
Is it the absence
Of you?
The distance
Of you?
Am I night
Missing the moon
The twinkling of stars
All the strangers around me
Not bright enough
To lure me out of the dark
Corners that I hide; that I lurk in?
Or am I grass
Missing the sun
The warmth
The fiery burn
Motionless too long
Without a light breeze?
Or am I the shore
Still feeling
The splash
Of your farewell
Long after
You've waved
Goodbye?
