Dec 2014
you are nothing,
but a mirage at this point
you've                 evaporated
from the earth of my dreams to
make       images    of      love  
when I'm dying of thirst
for  your  touch
youaremeanttobehere
in my bed in my arms
you are meant to be in my life
though I'm not meant to be in yours
how  can  the  universe  be so  cruel
to  line  up  my   stars   with   yours
butlineupyourswithsomeoneelse's?
Most days i wake up and still
expect you to be next to me
or i expect to find a note saying
you've  gone  for  a  morning  ride
mostdaysIwakeupthinkingyouloveme
it takes me a few moments to wake up
and            realize          you         don't
i half expect you to write to me
and tell me about your day
(i fully expect you to write to me)
i refresh my inbox in a very lonely way
and    it   apologetically   comes    back
empty                   each                    time
it can see the emptiness in my eyes
a work in progress
