Phantom fetters Love
in obstinate darkness
revealing foundational cracks
where I built my world
her vacuous stare flashing
as she slips away unheard,
fodder for my fantasy
as it all crashes around me
but I no longer yearn
for that arbitrary palace,
long ago settled in and settled for,
but cleave to the shudder
Phantom scratched down my spine
with a hissed, "Goodbye."
