#tellthemyoulovethem
No age
no age at all
never a justification
a reason to placate us
just an implacable, non-negotiable theft
of love, histories and too much still to be
the solace, a skinflint’s compensation,
is that for a short while you had them
and they had you
and that was life
but that’s as much as you get
to try to make it through
