Amen

you are my refrain
slink into my thoughts
water-
fall
 
again and again
i think of you
i wish it wouldn’t be
in all my poems, every haiku
there’s a giant sea
i swim in it
& you wait for me
 
you are my refrain
slink into my thoughts
water-
fall
 
maybe i’ll send you a letter
today, maybe then i would feel better
maybe you need to see my face,
maybe we’re just not in the right place
 
you are my refrain
bring me back from the pain
 
i’ll let go when you let go
you are my refrain
