Once more to see you

Red sears mark where your hands once held mine.

You are but a haze now, a smoke that fills up the room we both laid in.

We lived together in that small space, the apartment awoken by the earliest clamour of traffic. 

The flares of headlights reflect on to the window, distorted by the raindrops that crawl down the cold glass surface. 

I wonder if any of those red and yellow glares contain you, but I will never know.

Constant

In a word of flickering, fleeting, fickle fireflies

the North Star whispers hushes of love

Constant, perpetual love

Aegiya

Baby, my baby

curled up in my arms

a splotch of warmth on white canvas

Dearest, dearest baby

An eternal winter in your absence

melting away at muffled chirps of laughter
