“December,” someday, you’ll hear me say, “you’re small. Someday you’ll not dwell here, at all.”
“Flameless light, unconvincing tinsel — your legacy-less, grey-sky stare no longer rejects me.”
Expect me, someday, December, to say, “Gaze you, into some placid pool, reflecting — see now what I see when I see you.”
Icy heart, frozen love, ticking clock — your time winds down…down…down
Three, Two, One…you found out I found you out….
See yourself out
“I’m as May, you’re September, December.”
The moment before
The moment after, and you know
You’ve gasped
Echoed an undying love
Echo a self-healing love
You’ve erred
Love gone awry, again
Love your wronged heart, again
This refining stage
That you pluck from me the world
The all I’d wanted
