fog?

by Laura Duncan

night has fallen
blackness all around
a dense fog 
settles over the city
my love is gone
perhaps forever
i’m not sure where
but my love is gone
the fog grows heavier
pregnant with sorrow
because as i mentioned
my love is not here 
additionally
it is foggy
in a very literal sense
where is my love
my love
where are you
are you in the bathroom
are you in the yard
are you in the fridge
my love
i don’t know where you are
my love
i cannot emphasize
my unawareness of your whereabouts
and how 
the fog 
is real
and also
is symbolic of my consternation
my love 
i can’t see a freakin' thing
