Without you
I wish I could picture
one soulscape without you
but your absence is blinding
like a brutal sun.
I find myself beached:
a little grain of sand
once inside you vast.
without you everyone is mere
mirage that is nothing
but resemblances of you.
I used to rise underneath you
as a ripe tide breathing
in and out of shore.
now I am but a potential
dawn never seeing light;
a boat never touching ground;
a broken wave crushed.
without you
I am nothing.
