Nostalgia
for a memorable un remembered
defining moment.
The ambiance of sorrow
a sea congregated
with sad faces,
but coped
with smiling faces.
At an age
where understanding death
is misunderstood.
The soul, the essence, parted from
a physical home
The experience is relatable,
it's uncanny as a child,
Yet, meta as an adult.
Seeing you young
but I've forgotten my youth.
However,
the confusion sheds light
later in Life.
Surfaced behaviors
are like allergic reactions.
I filled your tiny shoes,
I was just 7.
Her voice, her face, her unconditional love...
Death at a young age
never seems to be
what it actually is.

Endless
without fatigue.
You run laps around my mind.
Circling with irresistible lights,
round and round.
You
  Think
     I'd be
dizzy.
Someone give the
manic
woman sedatives.
She's fine on the floor
with
false company.
I hate being so attentive to my screen
but...
I'b be euphoric if
I saw
an unread message.
I guess that defines me.
Distracted by distracting thoughts.
You placed me on a
fitted hanger.
Darling, why, it fits like a glove.
Pulling chords
that tug my soul.
Like the last sip in a bottle,
I know,
We're done.
I thought I was were
your
love
would reside.
