Bed

rebmasters

A lightly tossed,
ever so soft
blanket
struggles to maintain its
grip on the bed.

Your sumptuous scented presence still
on the pillow 
of this same bed;
was it really only this morning that you left?
I can still see the impression
your dark-haired head
has pressed,
caressed
into the soft surface.

Has it really only been hours?
Whole lifetimes seem to have passed by.
An echoed sigh
whispers in your delicious voice
borne on the wind.
When will I be with you again?

A question I will never ask;
you take your own path
& sometimes wind up here

      'Has it really only been hours?

      awesome, love the book-end
      first and last questioning, lines
      you're really starting to play with form
      and direction, while maintaining your unique
      free flowing - wonderful, signature traits..
      a great read
      thanks for sharing dear poet

        Thank you xx. This one was quite a personal one for my muse; the traces he leaves behind, how he doesn't have to come back (but of course I hope he does). I'm glad you liked it ❤️
