Poem: The Bedroom Window - Nassau, Bahamas

I look out of the bedroom window,
and it amazes me;
Because your eyes,
the doorway to my soul
are the next things that I see.
I place a mat on the kitchen table
and take out a plate.
Gazing at a reflection within the china
of a candlelight dinner date.
Later I slip into my bathtub,
my torso glistening wet,
Suddenly startled by a watery reflection
of us kissing on the beach before the sunset.
I peer out my bedroom window,
staring deep into space.
Beholding another reflection
of your sweet angelic face.
I walk to the bedroom mirror,
a humbling reflection I see.
The vision of myself,
a man who desperately misses his lady.
