eyeless in the dark of night you were

he just left and i can't go back to sleep. i fall in and out of consciousness for hours with him, and then once he has to go, i'm condemned to a world of reality and sleeplessness until i give up, my body gives in, and i fall back to sleep. he had poached salmon tonight and i had lox. i sprinkled popcorn over my bed, and we lay in it. what happens now? he told me i was more beautiful every time he had to leave, my hair in clumps and dreads, my body warm from laying under tangles of covers. i could barely open the eyes that darkness had sealed shut. eyeless i replied, and he left. now it's cold, and the crumbled pieces of popcorn hidden between the sheets offer little comfort.
