This Night You Are Not Here (Poem)

This night you are not here

And so I cannot see the moon or stars

They existed only as reflections in your eyes

This night you are not here

And so I will not dream dreams

They visited only with you beside me

I stare blindly into the immense solitude

In hopes that you, anyone, or even the abyss stares back

But this night you are not here

And so I am alone

This night a presage of all further nights
