Your name was sung in the seagull's wings that day. But we did not hear it. Instead she told me to stop looking over the edge for spots that could have held a body in its last moments; railings that might have felt the warm grip of hesitation, and the last release to flight.
We let ourselves forget, allowed our eyes to jump with the dolphins below. And we even forgot about your possibility for a moment -- or perhaps just did not hear your last glance to the sky.
Your silent jump convulsed our bodies, but we did not feel it. We did not feel the gates clash with too much sorrow so that some gold chipped off and lightly dusted your convoluted shape which winked up at us and whispered of forgotten moments -- but they were carried away by the wind and we did not hear it.
From our gated zenith above your hole in the rocks, all we could do was stare and try and scream your name but we did not know it.
