In the dampness of those unslept sheets I find my solace between the linear moments when you held my breath and the last time we said goodbye:
Awakened by the thunder every calm fiber goes dormant as I toss and turn searching for the memory of your warm body The rain slips easily from glass to ledge and so do my tears; Life with all its poignancy, cannot reach me here beneath thick blankets of denial. As I pretend the night away death does not exist, nor does it live here, anymore In the dampness of those unslept sheets I find my solace through poetry in flight, although I leave it to the angels, to whisper you, goodnight !
