Click hereYou taste like the sea
I said once
Long ago
And you asked me what I meant
I never told you
Like all your other questions
Which I never answered
This too was folded neatly away
So that in time
It could come and haunt me
And so that
I could pound my chest
And scream to the night
And ask you to return
From the place where you are
Not because I want to hold you
Or think of children’s names
But only because
I had your countless questions
And now I have the answers
