my lips try to hold
the lingering taste
of your
love you, love you, farewell
cactus holding water
from a rainfall
that happens only once
each year
I am thinking Arizona
when you suggest
we start seeing other horizons
tumbleweeds where words should be
sandy tongue apologies
dehydrated and hallucinating
I mistook you for an oasis
