This morning I found a piece of you in my tea

I plucked it out and gave it a cursory look, thinking of us

I thought of your fingertips and your eyes that mirrored the sea

Then she came into my head and how you betrayed my trust

That piece of you slipped from my fingers

And drifted away like a petal in the wind

I often wonder, when I'm alone in the mornings,

Where the rest of you is
