Still only your face looked back at me

and you said nothing.

These men play me so hard, baby,

like one of their guitars, and I’m just another

face in their crowd, growing older

and pale as the moon.

The river rushes your reflection on

towards the ocean, but you’re as still

as the apples hanging like planets

above your quiet world. They cling

pink and tender to their branches

with skins holding close a sweetness

that will always be unknown to them,

which is their own secret selves.
