you said silently
to the wind
morning break
I will rescind
light weaved
through fabric
performing
silhouette tricks
then the sun
streamed inside
and shadows
could not hide
you left me
straws for bones
I no longer
know my own
where flesh
pressed against
I retraced
night’s expense
you remain
in amber’s lie
a recollection
coy and shy
