Flying Free

Lost
purple balloon
flying free, skywards.
Child wails with grief.
Tears.

orange
dying spheres
surrounded by translucent
tears, connected by dark
matter.

some
anniversaries are
reminders of sadness
it’s been twelve years –
loss

time
marches on
and just when
breath returns so do
tears

contemplation
edging reality
at the creek
banking on good memory
flow

I
stand alone
let water fall
from my blinking eyes…
see?
