She Says I Do Not Love Her - Catholic Love

jp

no way to find you hear you read you

no hotel phone answers

no cell phone reception

no text to read

imagined hollowness of the lover spurned

empty stomach

ignorance swirling

my heart a gut ache emotional maelstrom

because absence wonders

whose body is yours with

a physical body

perhaps a laughing one over wine

but not mine

if you were not to come home, molly

would you easily forget

there is warmth to be beside us

in voices and company and friends and willingness to join

indoors out from the cold

come join us home

but if I, leopold, could not come home

would i forget

or was my love a memory before i forgot

just a need

biology

guilt sin sickness in a creed of catholic myth.
