Peanut Butter Moles

At night, 
I try to remember your face:

The sandpaper scratch 
of your unshaven cheek, 
the peanut butter moles 
that charted my course better 
than stars, 
the canyons 
that cratered your eyes. 

If I close my eyes, 
I can still smell you, 
but the weight of your hands 
has grown ghostly.
