you
left the
door open
the day you left
I can’t bring myself to close it, not yet
hoping that you might decide to come back
but I’m a fool
you’re never
coming
home

I find this poem so moving, so simply put, charged with losses.

Thank you Joy…I do feel so disconnected from nature and dry inside when things get too busy at work. It’s been one of those busy seasons…
