Untitled Poem No. 2

i do not see your face in the moon
though once i saw your face in the moonlight, and
i cannot find you in the sunset
though once we walked
through an explosion of amber, ruby and topaz
and talked of nothing and all things and sun things.
i look for you in the stars of steel
and space-age plastics that orbit my backyard,
relaying phone calls not from you and television programs
     you never approved of.
once i had you but now I have lost you.
yet i do not suffer from the delusions of the brokenhearted,
because i do not see you everywhere i go.
i see only that you are not with me.

This poem seems to wrap around itself. I liked reading it.
