Pause

You

interrupted my now.

Uninvited

you arrived.

my thoughts pull me to you.

The idea of you,

ghost of decades past

soul resurrects with each pulse

coronary drumbeat,

rhythmic temples

Turn away from today,

pull of sadness,

heaviness.

of loss.

now water over me.

I KNOW you will fade

bellows of my breathing

time. then more.

water will rise

? too far before you leave
