Gone

By rmerwin

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

It came today on the breeze I hadn't expected our sunset and my wine gone long ago I had lingered there, in that moment, for an eternity now I was home Our chair and blanket grow lonely I suppose I should give them away to a charity, or someone, but I can't The long night alone draws uncomfortably near sheets too crisp space in the bathroom for days no smell of conditioner no blush in the sink wonder how you are I dim the lights fluff your pillow and miss you Love posessed of me, obsessed of me I am not beyond reproach It was my fault I trew us away and I'm sorry Written October 30th, 2001 © on Oct 30 2001 02:48 PM PST, Rick Merwin   0 • 8
