My Dearest,

Lightning zig-zagged through my body

as I looked upon your face.

I cry out for a vision hoping you’ll

tell me what to do.

I float through life destined to walk

the earth forever blind without you.

He takes the first coup and you gaze upon

me with reluctance in your eyes.

With an alkaline face I stare back at

nothing, why did you leave?

Stars wheeled in my head as I was

pelted with icy rain.

A patch of sky missing as if it felt

like I feel, you are the missing piece.

A raven sits perched high up in the trees his

head unmoving, his stare piercing.

My long lost love still dwells inside me.
