Dixie Leaves Me

Dixie rapes me of all feeling but this:

that i was; until she;
woefully incomplete

there is an emptiness
  that builds
      that rages
            that destroys

with the disappearance of she,
she that phoenix rising,
that bright light in darkness
and i, lost in the abyss,
cannot find the beacon of her lighthouse

but there is this
ever this,
that i, i shall never forget,
a single heartbeat,
or whispered kiss
or feathered touch


not from she,

no, not from she.

Please tell me what you think
