You do not see me -
I've seen the world reflected
in your distant eyes.
You do not feel me -
clenched around your heart beating
fast as humming birds.
You do not speak me -
out in the night, thin in the dark
like an empty oath.
You do not find me -
in the sky, sea, city, trees
where my mind wanders.
You do not touch me -
behind my eyes, beneath my soul.
It shrinks away.
You do not see me -
The gap you leave, it left you whole.
I fade away.
