The non-visible
Glassy stares and vacant glances
You left me.

I cry
        out
You do not
                  appear

I want to taste the water and the blood
Pass through my teeth
glide over my gums
Trickle past my tongue
gush down my throat
burning it
burning in my stomach
Tap into the pain and all will be revealed
In dreams you are solid and real
I satiate the pleasure of it.

Unrequited

Breathe in, but don't breathe out
You vanish behind my eyes
But come back
Breathe out, don't breathe in
For now you are gone

If I told you, could you see?
