The Departure

by Karlo Mikhail Mongaya

In my departure
I send through the air my kisses

And give
A description of the heavenly realm

It is blue
For it longs to be with you

It seeks
To be where the sun is overhead

Where the nightlight flickers
To the extended beat of your heart

And I look for your home
From the hole in the sky

Between the wind
And the untouchable stretch

But all I see
Is an endless sea of white

The tiny shapes
Of earthly structures disappear

Too soon
For me to recognize

The abode
That housed hose eyes
