Park bench



Wait for me

I'll be back someday

maybe not right now

maybe not for a while

not even when you pray


i see your eyes

darting the path

not I

maybe the next

maybe behind him


crumpling little yellow things

under your feet

unscathed

tracing your fingers

over the engravings of lovers past

and wrinkled oak


wait for me

i will return

you won't recognize me

but i'll be there
