It felt like Emily's funeral

It felt like Emily's funeral —

the one in her brain,

Now it's in mine. 

 

It felt like then hits were innumerable —

the one in my gut, 

had me down like too much wine.

 

It felt like we were insufferable —

from my feet to my head

and throbbing through my spine. 

 

It felt indisoverable, like the last small creature in the ocean deep

Like a depression with too much sleep

Like a love lost I thought I could keep.
