In Your Memory Poem by Maya Hanson

I'll crash on the shore
in your memory when I'm weak,
find mysteries in seashells
that shouldn't have any.

You let seagulls loose
above your halo,
a curse in flight until
flying's unknown.

I wish I dredged up
no scenes behind your skin,
just a sad pair of eyes
you don't know yet.

What if I just
want to tell you,
you know how to
touch
just where it hurts.

What if I just
want to tell you,
you have an uncanny
resemblance to loneliness.
