The tide has moved on

From

This part of our lives

But there are things you have left me

That will always live on

The habit you had

Of folding clothes

Before bedsheets

Spread out across

My room

Tangled and in colors

That you had chosen

Days ago

The tide moved on

From this part of our lives

Sometimes

You return

In little pieces

A puzzle

Memories of glimmering sunlight

The scent of your detergent

Filling the air

Back

And forth

Again

/

Again
