Gaps

[tmanzano]

I thought I heard your voice
passing through the gaps in the fence
when the wind kicked up again

It is always you

Today has been opening jars of pennies
stubs of things we did
napkins with your love notes

When I sat down last night
slowly falling into the couch
a glimpse, heart skip
almost caught you in my today

I don’t know where you are
or who we have become

Organizing drawers, in every corner
there are pieces of us
latent fingerprints, evidence
we saw our endless selves in

I miss you
I miss us

the us
that lives
and breathes
of what we were

our winds
kicking up again
singing our names
to our kids

between gaps
we see
forever in
