don't know
how to feel when
I see your face.
hastily shove on
this mask and
become
prepared and
blank powerful
and cold.
angry to be
full of so much
sadness, blocked
beyond pain.
and then I morph.
into some sort
of businesslike
zombie who
packs up this part
of her life.
cobbles together
her dignity.
