Beside the Fire

Beside the fire

I lose myself in the night

As the sweet visage of something

I can never have

Assails my senses

Confused, I look to the night sky,

And see your eyes in the stairs,

And your hair in the void.

But in the dancing flames I see

Your spirit, bright,

Undying

But as I search the darkness,

I don’t see you.

I miss you

Beside the fire
