I Just Wanted to Tell You That...

A Poem

By Miranda XhilagaPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

…there wasn’t a single trace of you around

this morning

though the door was left ajar

and a few petals from the blossoming cherry tree

had fallen in the garden

over trampled grass

my book was open on the same page

half sipped wine set on the porch

gypsy music still filled the air

the candle was burning into sweet inviting fumes

like always

and my slippers were facing the wrong way

I wondered

whether you might have found a shortcut to get to me

or whether the road has taken you elsewhere altogether…

if so,

do you like it there?
