I wrote search party
poetry for two damn years
No one came looking

the boy wears shoes to bed
the wanting lies beside him,
its face a blur of washed out blue
and thread bare sheets
it whispers
"let it go– or let it sink."
he unlocks the window

I freeze
tongue-tied,
like a boy rehearsing your name
until sound collapses into breath,
throat filled with snow,
a silence only the winter knows.

Imagine growing with as much purpose

being wanted as I am
unravels the north wind:
first cracks, then rivers,
then marigolds again
from puddles
I hoped were frozen forever.
freezing and thawing
never leaving winter
never finding spring

the boy dreams of flowers
growing from the mouths of broken toys
into the hands of his teddy
a garden blooms in the ceiling crack
each petal a memory falling
through the hole in the bathroom floor
he cannot name the faces
without bleeding from his own

don’t talk to me about expectations
just tell me how deep the water is before I dive in
is this love going to break me in half
or plunge me
into the most beautiful unknown

the yard feels larger now without you
wildflowers have laid down in the grass,
branches hang heavier with silence
I’ve put the feeders away

with each departure
wings and words fold into the air
I stand in the ache you left
slowly learning to let go
without calling back
