Challenge
Hey, you're not here and I'm...
Where is Your Sun?
Hey, you’re not here
and I’m beginning
the crux
of my tomorrows
without you
safely tucked
inside my yearning heart.
I step into bleak darkness
of pregnant clouds,
as I strain to reach
your absent hand.
My tears congeal
in stagnant rivers, as
ribbons tying us together
become frayed
and tattered shreds.
The sky ignites,
spewing out
your flickering image
in volcanoes of
gray lava, leaving
a trail down the tracks
we have trod.
Although it was time
for you to leave,
you breathe
inside me
as I try
to copy and paste
the kisses I have saved.
But where is your sun?
