twenty three

Where did you go?

          I never left.

I miss your face.

          Why did you close your eyes?

I want to touch you, feel your skin on mine.

          You grew more interested in your other endeavors.

I need to put my lips on you.

          Mine never stopped moving for you.

I want you to come to me.

          Why did you walk away?

I miss your thoughts.

          They never left your face.

Where did you go?

          I wasn’t the one who went.
