We slept
with my back curving toward
you
and I got used to breathing
with you breathing just beside
me
and though the habit's new
enough,
a night without you
so soon
reveals a change
quicker than any Pavlov would
anticipate.
Now, on my own
I sleep
without rest
like those with impaired breathing:
snore,
sigh.

A poem for my first night after the love of my life departed for Australia.

Perfect. Such brevity is amazing. Makes me miss the one I was with.
