i knew somewhere in the depths of my mind
that someday you would
go,
a voyage to a land of devastation and revelation,
to leave me stranded on
the shore calling out your name,
the wind haunting me with
memories of you,
the waves washing over you
crashed against my cheeks,
and european battleships hadn't seen
the devastation
you wrought upon my heart,
history failed to prepare me
for the inconceivable affliction
devotion brought upon me.
my anguish wrung out
through the night,
the stars were beacons of your soul
streaming webs of scars across the sky,
and i wondered if you found
yourself at ease in someone's sweater,
if they had kissed you better.
