Don't Let Me Go

It’s not your letters that I miss.
Not nearly as much as...
I miss not knowing I am important anymore.

Oh sure,
I can intellectualize myself
into a Cheetos induced coma... anytime.
But really! Without a periodic reminder—
like a love letter, or just a note
about your favorite song
or the way the clouds play tricks on you,
by creating shadows you never noticed before
as you stepped out of a meditative shower
into a haloed room
with a slit for a window,
that allows a refracted light
to be absorbed into your night blooming love,
where wonder is the taste of my skin—
I find myself missing all those transported electrons
that brought you, to me.

You always touched me within my
plasticity. My mind groped yours.

I don't know which is more imaginative, your poem or the video. They are both fantastic.

Sara, what a wonderful talent you have of putting words together:
"I miss not knowing I am important anymore...
[and] as you stepped out of a meditative shower...."
There's a kind of beauty in the way you express the pain of it all.

Sara,
"...missing all those transported electrons that brought you, to me"...an exceptionally well conceived image, and the final, "My mind groped yours" hints at a true intimacy; a soul admitting loss, the feeling of not being wanted is honest confessional. This is fine indeed.

Oh, Sara - you bare your soul in a c h i n g lines - powerfully penned sadness, I felt the loneliness ... well done! My new favorite of yours.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

And Sara: you ARE important, if to none but me.
