Ballast Valentine

Nightly blessed with the knowledge
Of you and the daily conviction
Of your presence somehow
 
Still I’m not sure what to do
When I get up every morning
And find you gone somehow
 
Back to the prison of your heaven
Where I can only visit you
And sometimes I’m refused
 
Permission at the entrance
And sit here in the sun
You’ve left behind
 
As a mere token of your love
With its little ballast of light
Against all gloom
