Life Is Changed Not Taken Away

They only hit until you cry

After that you don't ask why...

The little loss (of this morning)

Is subsumed by the greater loss (of yesterday).

Always looking for her; A pale imitation of Her.

It's a jagged and deep cut that you had forgotten

But when you are there

It's 6:00 on that day.

"She's on her way out..." the nurse said

The milk helped a little and the sun shines.
