Eclipsed Valentine

Swatting  mosquitos
I think of old loves
in the morning I’ll wake  up
covered with love-bites
scratching myself bloody
or that will be the sun
pawing the red drapes
like my hand the empty place
where love would lie
in the bed beside me
late into the morning we had
only one winter and one spring
and then it was done
what would never be done
finished but never completed
