Deprture

She waited And dimmed Burning The setting sun’s a heavy weight She wallowed Rotting Horizon far behind A heart’s a lover’s lovelorn urn She endured Brazen Tear shaped Hornets stitched her broken skin She remembered Searing Slow dancing fireflies Embers sparkling in his eyes She reached Frail hands Chilled stone and bone Heed hot candle’s shapeless wax She acquitted Marauder Clinical tolerance High functioning excommunication She walked Discerning A deep cold abyss To search within and be swallowed She walked And waited And remembered Ceremonial departure
