I Miss You

As we awaken, you and I,
From the velvety blackness of slumber
Like two oxen yoked together;
As we in tandem lie between messy sheets,
Of rustled pillows and wrestled sleep
I lie and ache of impulses tethered to my
Flesh and blood, bone and dreams.
I rise to the sun and dilate to it’s cheerful
Visage meeting my heavy eyes.
And my home begins to hurt.
The sagging window frame hunches its shoulders above my bed, from which I
Listlessly loom under.
The sagging blinds, adorned with
Paper ghost garlands,
Squints its eyes into the corners of the
Bedroom, resting it’s fine rays upon
Floating wisps of dust and webs.

You shine like gleaming wisps of love
Stretching star limbs, embracing me
And I rot within your encircling light
My essence immolating like the words
“I love you and it wasn’t your fault”
Heavenly bodies of forgiveness
Golden sounds healing me
Like love, everlasting and bright
