the deep & sultry sorrow of missing you:
my favorite thing to do.
it is indulgent.
sickly-sweet,
dark & vacuous;
full, and wholly incomplete
rich & luscious,
it is crushed and crushing velvet —
crushing me.
swells of existential love
like a photo negative
it's all there,
and it still Is.
inverted, inside-out, and twisted;
but inarguably evident.
dwelling in your absence,
delving deep in pain of life,
to bask in such sensuous strife,
you're hardly missing.
