December Valentine

I insist the last
three dried-up
pomegranate skulls
come tumbling down
I miss you that much
and I have even less
patience for the leaves
falling down my open
shirt in the process
of dislodging them
as if they could be
your hands
feeling their way
along my face
a thousand kisses
falling on me
not a thousand
leaves
