Yesterday Yester,Da

Yesterday, you were here beside me I woke to our bodies tangled in the sheets we spent a day making plans and drinking tea mapping out our future day by day, week by week, Yesterday, you were here beside me I watched as you smiled when I burnt the toast we spent the day believing we had tomorrow that we had so much time to fill with pleasures Today, I woke and you were gone the space in our bed empty and cold I spend the day drinking tea, crying and hurting Today, I am alone fearing the coming darkness the emptiness, the void your absence leaves all those plans sit on the shelf -mocking me. Yesterday, I was happy.
