"bibimbap" poems
A burning sadness Crept up from within me Like the cigarette you just finished Its smoke engulfed me. We had the usual date. “For old times sake,” you said. Dinner at Applebee’s And a movie at 42nd. Interstellar was on the plate Our first heavy movie together. It mushed our already tired brains But like always, we analyzed it after. Remember Valentine’s at Kip’s Bay? We watched the Lego Movie. At one point our combined laughter Was all that echoed throughout the theater. But we’ve also ridden a Central Park carousel, And ate bibimbap at 35th. You’ve felt at home on my couch While I fell asleep on your tummy at Brooklyn Bridge Park. I have these and more to take with me. And when you hugged me goodbye tonight, This scorching flame burned brighter, As you whispered into my ear, “I’ll miss you.”
