The familiar in the foreign is what I seek and
It isn’t enough to say how deep
But to know truer am I now than I knew myself before to be
And never will I know where you go from me
When you’ve gone to the rye to swim deep
Beneath the green
Where into the earth we race to sleep,
Deep, back to the autumn’s reach
In a rusted cedar slumber that saw you to the stars
And the discipline that denial takes
Makes an ache just like the embrace of absence
Warm with fatigue am I over you
And it quickens me to know
That I’ll never know new
Tethered and bound
The movement, it tills me
A shallow bed
Quick to be met in my death
Beside you in time must I be
And how I miss you, my Blue

Deeply melancholic, beautifully expressed.
