it purrs through the night
not because i can't sleep
but
because you can't
or couldn't
a red light flickered above my bed
the smoke detector
watching with its red eye
i thought, for a moment,
it was
out of the corner of my eye
a firefly
trapped in the jar
of my room
fluttering above
my
half
empty
double
bed
i'm discomforted
by my comforter
i'm missing you
