We fold our clothes
piece by piece, pile them
neatly on a chair, as if
with this act, we discard
every part of us that
existed beyond this room.

Your hands become master
of mine. Your touch,
caressing with a sense
of urgency, confirming
that in each separation
we lose an eternity.

And now you're gone.
Only satin sheets on our bed,
their cool soft gloss
luminous in the dark,
remain.
