My Boy - Poem for Luna

I smiled this morning
thinking about

thinking about you, Luna

wherever you are.

Up on that moon?

I smiled.
I smiled
thinking

thinking you might be smiling too.

I don't count
the days
anymore.
I'm not that petty.
not
that
petty
Not anymore.

How long has it been?

Sometimes
sometimes I don’t-
I try not to sleep
because

because if you don’t visit

it’s not
it’s not your fault
it’s mine.

I want it to be my fault.

Not that it’s your fault.

Not that there’s something wrong with you.

You’re busy.

Being busy isn’t a crime.

You don’t have to-

I mean I still think about…
I do wish I’d see you more.

It’s not your fault.
