2015
Life is short
the grave is sudden
hold on to love as long
as it will have you
hold on to the nights
empty
to the days
damned
hold on to the flowers
in ink
to the water
beneath your
brain
hold on to
the words
their minutes
and hours
and years
hold on to their
age
they are only here
to love you
to deliver you
from last year
into the next
as
gracefully
as
possible.
