-----------___________----------------
Pain falls like a cloak upon the young woman
hiding the true depth and severity of the wound
Already, the knowledge of finality makes its terrible self known.
Collapse seems imminent, but a few strands hold back,
being set in place by the gentle hands of love
“Parting is all we know of Heaven,
And all we know of Hell,” the voice quotes.
“That's what Emily Dickenson said,” says the voice
in the middle of its seemingly incessant banter.
A few words are all that can be said
A few tears are all that need be shed
Silently, an arm wraps itself around her,
meeting it's partner in back, like a secret
rendezvous from a dime novel
I cried for you — no — I cried in place of you,
As I would die, our roles reversed.
Tears well up even now, the reminder of
woundless, ghostly pain, flickering behind my eyelashes,
propelled by the surge of others to follow.
The other emotions to follow.
other memories.
loves.
losses.
