It was chilly this morning.
Bluecast morning
downfocused eyes
She’s not sleeping here
Nobody’s sleeping here
Nights come early
and end early
How long they are
is the only thing I think about
before I try to sleep it off
Drowsy mornings bleed
into lazy afternoons
before circling back
to evening’s unwanted intrusion
I stay up late watching movies
and wake up thinking
about how much I miss her
