Absence

30 5 2
                                        

Your kaleidoscope colours bathed me -
Crazed me and flooded me with love.

Your absence went through me like a bullet.
Permanently lodged in my rib cage
I'll perish if I pull it.

These few lines are inspired by a poem called 'Separation' written by W. S. Merwin.
