miss.
such blissful streams emerge from simply contacting your eyes
watching the body stand still, quietly urging to hold you
to learn everything I casually missed when I had the chance
toy frog mediates a touch that would scatter light throughout me
tears somewhat made of happy that if it never happens again
antique occasions remind me of this is how to experience joy
this smile is made of pulled back hair
opened-toed shoes, feet turned in slightly
if this ghost image I’ve held onto is all I wake up to
it will be forever satisfying in place of someone that is not you
