We once stood on the Edge
And called it Love
Now it gathers itself into a corner
Quietly, like an old heirloom
You arrived like weather
Changing rapidly
Bringing your own history of doors
Like a weapon
Then things became careful
Which is how endings often begin -
Language became architecture
Boundaries turned to borders
Later, there was a still silence -
Not the peaceful kind
The abandoned kind that rearranges
The room
While one is caught inside
The simplest of all truth:
Nothing was solved or resolved
Only set down
We placed something fragile
On a foreign beach shore
And now we dare not look back
As it closes
Without ceremony
