landon
six days passed since i saw or heard from you.
you didn't come into the shop for your daily cup
of tea nor did i run into at the grocery store.
when i wrapped you up on your couch and
left a goodbye note beside you,
i assumed and hoped my departure was
only temporary for the night being.
i contemplated showing up at your doorstep
but thought against it.
would you answer if i rang or called out
your name while pounding my fist against
the door?
or would you pretend no one was home
or instead, dismiss me all together and tell
me to go away.
i often found myself strolling near your
apartment building in hopes, that maybe,
just maybe, i'd catch you in a rush coming out
of the two glass doors.
with a blink of an eye you were right in front of me
and with the snap of a finger, you were nowhere to
be found.
