you left me in Paris, with
perfume and the slight smiles of
a thousand paintings.
maybe it was because I cut away rolls
of undeveloped film; maybe it was
my smell, like chalk and soap together;
you said goodbye, and
i believed every word.
Poland, flat prairie, peaks
jump high and low, endless
abysses, Merry Christmas,
wish you were here;
and I have received many postcards
since, but
none of them
are from you.

you have your own voice, and that cannot be bought.
I love (and believe it's true) what Cuileann says here.

in the wake of light, your words bring me more(please, do leave your fingerprints behind, so I may relish the image of our hands after you go.)
