Lovesick

All night, when the stars shine
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIItogether,
I can feel your absence like
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIan unwrapped shadow
and it makes me miss you

even more. I keep tossing
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIand turning
in my bed, alone, cold, longing
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIfor your skinny
arms to wrap around me

and your soft whisper to
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIsmooth out
the tangles in my head.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIBut you aren’t
there and that’s exactly

what I should have expected.
