<p>most nights, your name is penned across the sky<br />
inked in slowly sloping curves of cursive<br />
traced with gold and underlined with silver<br />
and bleeding into the starry paper behind</p>
<p>in the beginning, it was so easy to love<br />
but what good is loving if it is never reciprocated?<br />
acknowledgement vindicates my inner guilt<br />
for following the way that I was designed</p>
<p>everything Ive ever let go of<br />
has claw marks embedded in it<br />
and downy feathers adorning the fissures<br />
where the love of a partner should have been</p>
<p>inside the locket you left me with<br />
there are two faded and crumbling pictures<br />
one of you and me when we were young and carefree<br />
and one of a stranger, standing tall and clear</p>
