For someone I never met

No promises

of ever afters.

Voices

too small to carry.

The truth?

That was yesterday,

this is tomorrow that we bury.

Catch hold of the wind,

Wind-Rider!

I love you now!

and when the bough breaks,

when my heart breaks

I will love you 

forever.

Blackwing would be a great name for a press. "...this is tomorrow that we bury..." I got snagged on this line - it quivers with dissonance. I love a great time allusion and this poem is chugged full. Enjoyed. - allet -
