I Know No Other North
by Melissa PantherThis is raw
tender, beginning the thaw
you are sunk
I am overflowing
my edges
and we
have made moves
not yet realized
Even your quiet
gestures find no
place to rest
when held by my hopes
by my
hands
my need,
unguarded, unarticulated,
unacknowledged
There is no center
I know where you
do not exist
Without you I am
incomplete, unknown
your embrace is
my only home
I know
no other north
