when tables are empty
when whispers die out
when love's legs give out, with no remnants of lust
when fathers become ashes
when brothers become ghosts
when mothers are left to sweep up the dust
when families mourn
when friends reminisce
when children ask innocently what's going on
when cries are kept muffled
when hearts ache and stretch
for the loved one who's all of a sudden just gone
I read
much of your portfolio, this one really got to me, I remember my cousin, Edward... Cambodia 1972.. his name is on the wall..
this made me cry a little today...
thank you
Peace
Dylan
