I miss you
and I’m afraid
Of the days
We never left bed
Head safe on your chest
Fingers through hair
Eyes closed
Soft and strong
My teddy bear
Afraid of the days
Spent drifting
Through used books
Into the gallery
The stupid ceramic hippo
Of “my angel”
Of “baby” and “I love you”
I miss you
And I’m so afraid
To remember
