When will I walk here again? On this crispy gravel that my blood has spilt upon That with my cuts have shared their sting When will I feel this again? The sharp poke of golden leaves Raked into a mountain And fallen like a kingdom When will I see this again? I favored the papery tree Peeling cream sheets of bark When will I smell this again? The tang of York patties The comforting scent of cigarette smoke It lies in my veins now When will I see you again? The greif and ash in the folds of your skin Your hand clasped around a warm tupperware of tonight's leftovers Your foggy, yellowed glasses And the hat I never see underneath When will I hug you again? Feel your denim clad arms encircle my growing waist Feel your tears on my cheeks For now I stroke your wedding ring And ask myself questions
