i long for you.
your sharp gaze and steely eyes looking into mine
lips twisted down, a lie prepared on your tongue
strength and perseverance etched into the scars on your skin
but you are gone now.
replaced by doe eyes and a gentle embrace
sleeves rolled up to reveal beauty and virtue
your wounds are faint aches, scabbed over but still healing
and yet, somehow, i still feel worthy.
