[bodytext] => Retreat under covers An eyelid curtain falls But you are backstage In the darkness, waiting Dripping wet in the shower Clinging to the warmth I like it here, where you can’t tell What is water and what are tears Into cakes and brownies, Artificial pleasantries Taken in, eaten and imbibed Yet stomach, like me, returns to empty I stuffed you in my closet A well-worn childhood teddy bear The very scent cripples me And I am a child again, wanting you Memories glossed over Gilded with sunshine and smiles, Daily intruder in wrong room It does not live here anymore.
