Title: Words That Seek You

My B. was blue in a cloudy sky,

morning freshness after a sleepless night.

He wore his heart on his sleeve; when he loved it sincerely,

he could charm sadness with a smile.

He once told me: "Remember, Daisy,

even if I disappear, I'll be right there with you."

On the edge of the page, in a poem, very close,

in unspoken words that the wind will carry.

My B., with the gaze of a fragrant matzah,

went away with the sunset, where thousands of stars are.

He left in his soul the sour taste of longing

and the weight of tears that hurt empty hands.
