I will never recover from loving you

a poem

I will never recover from loving you
god, why
            would I want to
I pray 
            you become the jester in my dreams
            I see your face in all your old things
            mistake shadows for your figure
            inherit your quirks and eccentricities
I'll never recover from loving you
but god, why 
            would I want to
I'll never toast another drink
            without choking on your name
never cry to another song
            without your loss being to blame
your absence will wreck me
             as long as I breath
but I'll gladly live in a sea of blue
             on an island of grief
             just to keep your memory
the breeze through my window
             will be your heavy sigh
the moon
             the sparkle in your eye
I will never recover from loving you
and god, 
             I hope I don't
             as long as I'm alive
