i see them, your little fingerprints
like footsteps in the snow
wherever i look, wherever i go,
there they are, your constant reminders
of a world i no longer know
whether i'm thinking of my favourite book
looking at my keyboard keys
leafing through my school pages
or raiding a shelf of dvd's
my midnight snacks of icecream
nolonger warm the world
only serving to open the void
with rememberances spilt from your quill
little flickers here and there
the way we sat, our favourite film, you trying to type with me
every break and lunch time together, climbing hills, falling asleep
i breathe you in and suffocate
see your finger prints every where
reminding me of the desert void under a burning cold sky
that endlessly rests there.
there,
hanging in time
frozen between you and me
as i follow your finger print footsteps
and make my own with droplets of me
a tidal wave of memories overflowing and blocking my drain
each little piece of me staining
the finger prints left in our name
