Long Farewell

How could it not be
that each and every
day since

Those times when I was drowning
and you helped me remember
how to swim

And leap
out of the water into sweet air
laughing through our tears

How could it not be
that each and every
day since

You are in my heart -
though we are years,
and years apart

Vaporous

So much colder,
my thoughts find
these reasons

Vaporous 

To follow an empty space
where we once found
another side of wholeness

Strewn

A thin line grows thinner
in between the people who matter most

Tossing away the knotted days
spent in unison
bound

In what seemed eternal

Through the betrayals
of ourselves our ties
fray strewn

Gray with age and dusty confusion

Heavily we step
the ground shaking too soon
