The melting sky waned
a mixed pallor of shy and silent
as the day settled in for night.
The softening light
reminded me of you;
the moon,
fractured,
fell into my lap.
A gasping craw gnawed agape,
the quickest glint of desperate:
the pit of my stomach sewed shut
into itself.
The echoing silence moved
from open
to empty.
