In ten minutes
I can (try to)
write a poem
that will make
you cry.

(Is it?)
It is
a poem about
loss.
Loss preceding attainment
(Note: this is immortality),
Perpetual loss
working
in ways you
do not
(/will never)
understand.
We are mourned
in death
because we
mourn
our
Loss
(Yes, the Loss itself)
our entire lives.
