Your Little Secret

Kept
in shadows
where what is felt
cannot be seen
hands
blind drawing
my outline
against
the dark
just broken
by what little
comes through
a door
we can only crack
 
 
48 

I’ve seen 48 calendar pages
since I last saw you
the sun has risen and set
over countless red digits
and second hands sweeping
dizzying rounds to forever
so time is a liar
because
you were here yesterday
