You and Me

Disaster when you leave
Disappointment is a stiletto
Sinking in, searing
Eroding any attempt of Spirit to sneak by

Tears torn from behind angry eyelids
I might dissolve
Become a sticky snuffling mess
A puddle of stark solitude

Begging for your complete return
Why do you leave me?
It must be essential/absolute/necessary
For anything less…

I would slash myself into pieces and rearrange until
Until I couldn’t care anymore
You’re my fancy, my only light
So then

When you are gone
Stay with your soul in my soul
Wherever your body goes Wherever you are
And I will hold you close

L.S.
