| My lost love; Whenever the rain falls, I think of you. Your ghost seems to hover Closer then, And I dream in vivid color Of children and Mermaids, and green woods. The damp seeps Into the little house that we shared So briefly, And I hold my breath for fear Of living. Loneliness has more power than Love. Dark Dreams come at night, and I Wake screaming. The dawn is vague and hazy, And the moon No longer shines upon me. I sit at your Graveside, with the wind licking Cold at my Back, and imagine myself burrowed Warm and deep, Safe in a cocoon of Earth, Wrapped in Eternity with you, our bones fallen Together in The endless shadows of eternal Night. Then the Baby kicks, and I gasp out one more Choking sob Before I accept helplessness. I am Doomed to Live, and no escape is foreseeable. I loved you More than life, but my love for our child Is stronger, and Better, for you left me, and I shall never Forgive you that. I lay my hand on my stomach, on the Swell of our Child, and then I shiver once in the cool Air, dreaming Your fingers against mine, an airy kiss Against my Cheek. I look back once as I step away, And pray for Strength. Your tomb glistens in the bath Of the moon. I walk away, away from you this time, And leave My heart where it lies, in the cold ground. |
