Friday poem

[dukealien]

Thanks for reading. 
Can you provide a reference to a description of the genre (?) "torch song"? 
For me this poem lives in between the pathos of the impossible mythical love story of a tree and the sun (One has roots, the other lives in the sky, one is fire, the other is wood etc. (btw, thanks for being considerate of our leafy friends)- and the bathos of the trivial situation of difficult human love/infatuation (out of which it emerged on another lonely Friday night when HE walked out the door) The title belongs to the latter realm. The ending as well. I quite like that it is a simile. I think it accentuates singularity. And distance.
Punctuation. Hmm. Gotta get to work on that.

See Wikipedia for "torch song."  Favorite example (see how the phrasing works), Cry Me a River.
