I can imagine
for a little while
that you haven’t gone.
Maybe you are playing the piano
in the other room –
although that would be quite odd.
Or maybe it’s you typing:
clicking away with such determination –
but no, that too would be really odd.
Or maybe you are reading the paper,
silently, so that there’s only an occasional
rustle of a page turn or maybe
a twap of annoyance as the paper
bends in all the wrong places.
That would make more sense.
But there I go again.
Trying to make sense.
There is no sense here.
You have gone.
I have not.
I can only imagine that for
brief interludes
and not the vast
expanse of eternity.
Maybe that was you
the stair creaking, the footfall
but
no.
