I have a photo of you taken in mountains somewhere


~



you, snowflakebearded, you 

smile there forever 

in stainless steel light  


beneath an impossibly-blue sky 

your eyes follow me  

and I move just off-frame  

hoping you will step 


out of the paper 

and kiss me, sometimes  

in this tranquil room, I wonder  

if a morning will come 


when I don't think about you  

and when absence inhabits  

me, becoming 


too much to bear you are turned 

in a handful of silence 

to face the crack in the wall   




Be sure to check her out.
