A year ago today The sun slanted through Snow covered windows As I stirred in your bed I awoke tangled In a mess of legs and sheets I, as exposed as you were Next to me Our hands were joined And by the morning light I noticed our thumbs Perfectly aligned Tips touching slightly Padding quietly Through your home Tiptoeing to the shower I made myself at home Never wanting to depart I drove silently out of the snow powdered town Making mental notes Of possible places to work When I moved here To start my life with you But that was not to be So I stayed put Not so exposed Not so tangled in sheets Not so happily ever after. I miss you deeply. |
