Your Love

Stowe Wenngenroth, House at Port Clyde, 1938 lithograph


Your touch is what I miss, feeling of your body next to mine.

Your body is still here, but your soul is gone.

I know I have left you, but I have come back.


The grief never leaves.

Seeing what you’ve built,

brings your soul back to me.


The ropes you would tie along the pier,

The brick chimney you cut your hand on,

The baby blue curtains you bought for me.


My life has somehow brought me back to you.

This time you're not here to comfort me.

My love has grown so strong for you,


I wish I never left you.
