'Ed'

Your love was a drive through a spring shower
with windows down and your hair dampened by the storm
Your hand was a wing dodging the many raindrops
weaving against the air and flattening in resolute
longevities of childish glee upon your face, never once depleting
I stocked up on your devilish charm like a benevolent water tower
for days as these, days of unfrequented happiness
when all I see is the back of your head
your face buried in your pink salty pillow
as I stand long and hopelessly by your side
Your sneering abyssal-eyed teddy bear:
The only one who cares to hear my talk from better times  
he still curses the day I came along
and took your youth away
