Your Absence
Your absence is as painful as this drought.
I try to listen for your voice in the wind.
All it carries is my undying love for you.
A spider spins a web in an abandoned house.
And I sit here,
Devising a plan to bring you back.
Without you,
My space is empty.
Gravity is nonexistent.
I look for you,
Like a dope fiend looks for his dealer.
Without your drug,
My senses are distorted.
If love was a disease,
Then consider this a plague.
For it has taken everyone.
The crows have taken their bodies.
And I sit here,
Waiting for you.
