Mourning

Every night, her
nostrils search for
the leftovers of a scent
in the t-shirt
he folded in her closet
four years ago.

    I really like this. Quite a lot of longing in so few words. I think you could improve ‘search’ as a verb. It doesn’t sound as desperate as it could, or arguably should. :)
