I'd be able to find you anywhere
I created a space for you
Then I wrote you into a corner
without saying goodbye

Tonight the crescent moon rises and the window mists
Or are they my eyes
If I squint into the blur
I’d see an outline of a strong clavicle
Above that your rheumy eyes
soft
***
Your hair has grown grey along your ears
A few sprouting within like a fountain
the two moles on your right have faded
a lighter midnight

***
I’d be able to find you anywhere
As long as you are
near
hear your footsteps shuffle
l o w top sneakers
***
I wrote you into a corner
And sealed you t h e r e
About the Creator
Michele Nampalli
This space is breath for my sensitivity. The poems come fully formed. I've known for quite some time now that my art is about receiving more than creation...its the most natural way I know to process my inner world. It started when I was 7.
