Your Smile Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Your Smile



Loneliness visits
when stranded alone
Confirming the emptiness
—lost to bemoan

The darker the moment
the thicker it spreads
To lie and to cover
—my spirit in dread

It blocks every motion
I make to get out
Its shroud to enshadow
—within and without

As somber it tenants
it knows all the while
Its life but a memory
—the moment you smile

(Dreamsleep: May,2022)
