saw not your face




sabbath is lonely, full of pain

as you take a break to rest

and i saw not your face, even

once, to whisper my love



work days are burdensome

yet, providing a private space

for my shoulders to touch yours

your soul, for my soul to notice



i must let you go today, realize

i, for you to hide your face

from me, for you to retain

your essence for more peace
