You came back in the fall
and I told you you could go —
already almost gone
like the deer I came upon one day,
slow breathing beside me
before it leaped. You stayed
and stayed and now the air
is crisp with lack of you.
Critical feedback much appreciated!

I love this. "Crisp with the lack of you" is a masterpiece.
