Lord I Thought at Least You’d Be Here

When the others knew you I knew of you.
Maybe you need to be reminded
how we met
whether it was romantic?
                                        Make it better
I hear you singing
with my ear
            make it better
            make it better
When I lay next to you in life
only you had the life.
Already you survive me.
Death after all that forethought is so green
in the dark like a wet kiss
but Lord
I would give you up still for a person.
This poem appeared in The Yale Review, Summer 2023 Issue.
