the things we miss we love
June 11, 2019
I crave the slippery
satin sheets
that smell like your conditioner
11 pm day dreams bring me
to last fall,
crunching red and yellow
tie-dyed apples,
the sun stares ominously
at the mushy “ground apples”, rotting
I imagine us standing, four feet in a row
skin touching skin
my eyes on your missing button
your eyes on the fogged sky
you skip stones
across shattering glass
I pray that you’re showing off
(you’ve impressed me for a long
time, darling)
I crave pillowcases filled with
pillows filled with
puffin feathers,
I wake
from a nightmare
delighted, you’re still there
