You never happen to miss me
anywhere, around
your lips while licking the
froth of quite empty
eventides alone in some winter
woods or crying
and rising and falling like
we were the waves once
breaking against the
endlessness of passions, in
the swell and flood of
our desires perched
like birds
and lusty beaks
you never miss me when in love
or wistfully alone
