an afterthought

The lightbulb shrieks at me
inconsolable that you’re
not here
-lightweight.


The room goes dark, save
for your memory;
smoking in my armchair.
Am I cursed to always
be around the distracted?
never a time to shine
and dance around my room
(boysenberry lips, sleeved heart)
always hoping,
dark eyes overlooked

featherweight.
