setting the table
touching the bruise
every single time
***
worst nightmare
our world
without you in it
***
looking for you
in every nook and cranny
grief hide and seek....
***
the spaces in my heart
carved out just for you
forever
***
looking up
the mountains call to me
whispering memories in the river's song
***
surrounded by
every book I have ever loved
requited
***
oh for a hot summer day
when the itch of mosquito bites
is my only care
