You Are Gone At First Light
You are gone at first light
Lipstick stains on the wine glass gleam
It was a crazy night
Your shape on the sheets so white
Makes me ache and remember my scream
You are gone at first light
The cigarette butts on the floor a sight
All memories of a recurring theme
It was a crazy night
The empty bottles full of our ghosts so light
It was not love supreme
You are gone at first light
The bruise on my inner thigh a sight
Not a theme for a dream
It was a crazy night
So I will search some more for my knight
In the bright light of the dancing sunbeam
You are gone at first light
It was a crazy night
A vexing villanelle
