The Crush Wake
dry,
i have no more  reason to cry,
as if i could shed a tear
for me,
for you.
what else is there left to do
but fix eyes
on that sunset
and the next and every ever after?

time doesn't roll backward.

dull,
i stopped trying to cull
memories of when we were young,
you and me
innocently believing
we were eternity --
now severed, broken
by a wheel we can't see,
crushing time in its wake,

time that remains in the balance
for just me.

dreams
are what remain for me,
after I close my eyes,
hard hoping we will meet
in some parallel realm,
your heavenly smile
to greet me in an otherwise
black night.
