Love

All I have of you are your words,

some written long ago.

I once thought you were eccentric,

a clown of sorts,

or truly traveled the universe

to find yourself.



Once you wrote a note to me.

I wanted to hop-skip to Tanabata,

hang your words high on a bamboo

to let the world know.

Instead, I folded your words and

placed them in the pillow book.



The bare branches of winter rattle

in night winds.

I fall asleep with the mystery of you.
