Limns of Liaisons
Limns of Liaisons:
There is no pursuit for my heart or
my time and I am a stone of lack.
An unmovable wish for your love
nestles in the bones of my spirit.
But, you are blind to me and I am
blind to the tomb of June’s
unusual language of grief.
Oh, how can I negotiate with the
leaving of daylilies when there
isn’t any moonlight in your eyes?
And does any of this even matter
to me? Or you? Or is this just the
undeniable us that never was?

Your vulnerability here is palpable—desire, yet frozen (“a stone of lack”).
I mourn.
