a taste of lonliness

I remember
that voice.
I miss
how we
would smile
mornings
after sex.
Yesterday,
I sat at our window,
wet with rain and fog and winter,
and tasted salt
on my cheek.

i believe that poem was beautiful especially when u used the metaphor of tasting salt-made me sad to know you were crying...
