Her There

As the sun streaks
Through unrepentant windows
One morning following storm

You will see fog’s reminders
Chiffon dress, carpet’s imprint
Footprints in well past bedroom’s door

Wineglass by the bedside
With wide vanilla mouth
Her shadow, her hair

Her station in stereo
Her music exhaled
Her dreams dancing over the air

Her name in the curtains
Her pain on bent elbow
Her feeling dispersed everywhere

You feel every atom that makes up her dew
But you will not see
Her there
