The Passing of Seasons

Watching as you dressed trying to stay quiet
Your rings and your stockings like a delicate pirate
You in the bathroom readying noises
Then from the outside enchanting bird voices

I’d lay like a mummy planning the day
Never suspecting you’d slip away

There on the wall the rabbit you drew
The one from your childhood I had tattooed
Pine on the ceilings to cover the cracks
The chair near the window where you collapsed

I tried for ten long years to find another home
Living like an ascetic cloistered alone
How can this be the same house the same lifetime
Me still sleeping in our bed with you in decline

I took down the photos of us at the shore
And all of those paintings we couldn’t afford
You called me an alien my needs were so few
Just a quiet corner and some solitude

You’d call to my office when I hadn’t eaten
Joking I’d missed the passing of seasons

I still have the pillow you soaked as you dreamed
But now there’s another that curls beside me
As she falls asleep with her head on my chest
I stare at the ceiling my mind all a mess
