Do you know what remains in your place? You are always welcome to come and see.

As I bathe in the golden light of dawn,
    my fingers still reach for your shoulders.

As I fry the morning pancakes,
    my recipe still makes a few too many.

As I look to the road out west,
    my lips still reflect the curve of your smile.
