[mikebagh]

they’re fighting again, exchanging profanities hurled with a fury that rattles my world.

face-first on the bed, i can still hear every word despite a pillow placed over my head...

[mikebagh]

i don’t remember the very first time our eyes met

for it seems i’ve perpetually understood how softly

they spoke, inviting me to fall into your depths

like a book opening and closing on my favorite pages...

[mikebagh]

Separation is an illusion, they say. But sitting in my darkened home as a lone candle fitfully flames on the bedside table, her absence is felt...

The lifting veil of night makes me giddy, like I’ve been high. “All the way to Reno (you’re gonna be a star)” plays on the radio while she just wants to be alone and disappear...

[mikebagh]

from within the prison of desire i reach out blindly

for your voice whispered in the darkest corner.

but you’re not there. i feel your presence

in each shadow caught from the corner of my eye...
