Heartbreak.

There’s no place we haven’t loved.

We’ve kissed in sunlight

We’ve kissed in moonlight

In snow and pouring rain

Standing, sitting, laying and dancing

We’ve kissed with cold bodies

We’ve kissed with dripping skin

We’ve bitten lobes and necks and lips and thighs

At night, I stare at my sky

Are we seeing the moon together?

Which star is your favorite?

Shooting star! Did you see that, Love?

Can you hear me? Can you feel me?

I return my gaze to my feet

And submit to the sadness

and say to myself

“Goodnight, Luna”

and swallow the lump in my throat
