saudade

A snowflake tangled at the tine of your lashes

Melting black and blue, a droplet into

The sea veiled inside the multitude of your eyes.

The unbudded rose on the hollow of your cheeks

Birthed from the cold, callous wind outside.

And when you press your soft silken lips against mine,

The universe collides in an alluring discord

An anomalous supernova unravels under my skin.

But when you walk away, with a whisper of farewell

The agony is amplified ten times more

And it takes more than all of me to cease myself from

Intertwining my hand with your porcelain fingers,

Twirling you under the coruscate streetlight

A kiss on your temple, my lips against your ears

"Don't go".

But the echo of your heels against the pavement

Pulsates into a sense of longing, this pain I could never pacify

As the silhouette of your scarf disappears with a half of my soul

Into the moonlight until I am no longer whole.
