Appearing and disappearing
At a moment’s notice
Glorious as
our moon
Undulating in the darkness
Erasing the day’s woes
I see you everywhere
And nowhere
Slipping in and out
Of day dreams
Pretending to be memories
Your reflection is my reflection
My eyes and heart my own
And I miss you
mightily
Every day —
And as I navigate a world
Traveling backwards
Sometimes I
wonder
What you would say
And if we will ever be ok
For my mother
