dying beloved
wordless beauty
exhausted and numb
breast rattle and chuff
so much
time
lost
imagine her squeezing my fingers
murmur useless prayers into
deaf ears
but you
my old friend
you found her parched lips and she gasped you in
like one drowning
from too much
life
if i could
i would have exchanged my breath
for hers
but, no
you stayed with me and she left us alone
together
