Remembering
I find you in a weariness that confuses
to set my purpose free - in a refuge
of tears that call upon stars to hold
me captive within a the lump of
murky dust spent in your arms.
You chase me in reveries when my
pulse is still and my slit-eye is wrought
with need. Though felt in whispers
blown against my fevered skin, I feel
this monologue of ache that reminds
me once again you're no longer here.
When I seek you in memories that remain
in one last breath - the echo
of your sighs rakes me from this
hollow existence, and this haunting
wire of moments pinches the cry
of a single goodbye.
