I Name You in the Dark



The world has no meaning  I’ve accepted that.

And you were never really here.

You have become

the slow fire in my veins,

the shadow that kisses the walls of my room,

the scent of sleep curling on my pillow.


And I die a little death but that isn’t pain 

I imagine your hand 

fingers not touching me,

Yet somehow I still feel its warmth.

I realise you are the most meaningful thing

in a world that doesn’t care for meaning.

And that’s the tragedy 

or maybe, the grace.


I want you to know,

I will never stop finding you in everything

And I name you in the dark,

when the night feels too quiet to bear 

when I reach for you without thinking,

and my chest hurts like you’re still supposed to be here with me and only me.
