MAK AGAIN

Folder: 
JOURNAL #27

a terribly familiar hour

knows my sad name

that horse whisper

from reflection's regret

fells the shadow's perfect flame

speaking gently into the darkness

of my sentimental reverie

as the softness soon stares back

into tomorrow

his memory is even there so clear

limp yet constant

oh, crushing parody beware

his mark

his hold

his reason's love

gives to the emptiness

my unchecked tears

for every time I slip into

melancholy's noose yet again

my cries I know he hears

and in spirit he rushes in

to help me to get loose

and be right with the world

right that is but without him

and in a way

it should have never been.........
