Hunger Pains
I want to say I miss you, because you feel so far away. As you lay in bed next to me I wonder where you are. In the dark the stars are slowly losing their phosphorescent glow, gazing down from where they've been perched on your ceiling since before my time. They do not orbit us but lay in wait above. Silent. Patient. Watching. As the room gets darker, I think about how even true stars will all someday lose their glow. The rain falls outside. I imagine the sound of wind scaring leaves across the ground below and wish the season would change. It seems winter won't let go this year. My hunger pains remind me of you.
