Poems
Mar 2016
I Understand
I cry in my dreams
For the people I have lost
I knock on their doors
One by one
And take them for a walk
We just have a talk
And I listen
To the things they wanted to say
From a time
They weren't yet gone
They change faces throughout
And I shudder,
And I'm glad
They're finally back
While we sit atop a car
In a green suburb street
The last face is yours
Your smile filled with tears
You stared off
And said:
"You understand, right?"
And smiled,
"I can see,
You understand"
Then I wake up
In reality
And I've got no time
For tears in mine
And I know
They only lived
In the fabrication
Of my mind
