Sinking feeling

Ever since that time
You flew away
Across the strait
For poignant day

My heart sank

Never again would I allow
My heart to be
Shipwrecked
Without a life-raft

We exist in a temporal way
In some parallel galaxy
Where our minds float
Willingly among dreams

Not our bodies

A kaleidescope of loves
Exist within one bond
How to split affection
Across the diaspora?

One token affection
Placed in a box
Pride of mantle
To deliver new year

Gathering dust
Sunrise over Derwent River
