Sis

i.

so how do you prepare
to say good bye

do you whisper love words
or weep in anticipation

or say that I'm glad
you're still here
for however long
that is

ii.

how does one so full of life
so enchanted and enchanting

walk up to the exit door

iii.

you're cutting holes
you know

in the fabric
of the sky

iv.

voices live in the wind
yours will continue to play
to fling joy at flowers

v.

what happens to dreams
when the dreamer has left

do they shiver in the cold
are they embraced by another

vi.

it is too soon and too sudden
like a wave washing over one

to understand
