Challenge
Loss
Write about something that you lost and will never get back.
Empty Beds
I guess I lost you
In between sunset and sunrise
Somewhere before the divide
I woke to no heartbeat
Against the sheets
Or cold feet against my thighs
No lull of your breathing
Or pull from the sheets
The chill of the absence
Left my spine untouched
By warm hands
A pulse echoing against my skin
The wrap in the blanket
Covering two souls
The rise of your chest
The falling of my heart
Just touched by sun
The only love, I can count on.
