Farewell to the Ghost of a First Love
Timeless trinkets scattered about our home,
pieces of those painted moments we shared.
This paper full of scribbled love; and your pencils,
worn old with creation...and desire.
Why is it that such things are all I have left of you?
These burning stars within me.
The paper is the novel you were writing, and promised to let me read.
And the erasers of your pencils; the pink of your breast.
These relics you've left behind,
proof
of your soul within mine,
have become my creed,
my faith.
Because everything is biography.
