Poems

adorn
I spoke in nervous tones
On the day of your death
And found myself lacking all sensory depth
Some time next Spring
All the flowers eroded
And I couldn’t care less
I looked at my reflection and saw everything I hated
In the form of where you used to stand
And what was now left in its place
Gaunt and bitter
I adorned your absence
Like a crown
Hollow as my chest

I've not filled it since.
